Gateway Classic Cars of Las Vegas is proud offer this beautiful 1957 Oldsmobile 88.
The 1957 Oldsmobile 88 Coupe Oldsmobile showed a real propensity for power in the 50s. The Rocket T-400 V-8 displaced 371-cu.in., sported 9.5:1 compression, and was rated at 277 horsepower-more than double the earlier 88s output. This vehicle is equipped with the J2 option (code W). J2 had been around as a performance option since the early 50s, but for 1957 and 58, J2 ran three two-barrel carburetors. Historically, Oldsmobile's J2 beat Pontiacs Tri-Power to market by a matter of weeks. Oldsmobile had been developing 3x2-bbl carburetion for a couple of years under Pete Estes, an engine-development engineer and assistant chief engineer at Oldsmobile before he became chief engineer at Pontiac in September 1956. In December of 56, Pontiac announced Tri-Power for a spring release-no doubt prepared with information Estes brought with him from Oldsmobile. It caught his former co-workers off-guard, and they had to scramble to ready the J2 intake for a late January/early February launch as a mid-year option. This is one gorgeous 1957 Oldsmobile, and best of all it has the 371ci J-2 engine with three 2-barrel carburetors and the 2-Speed Hydramatic automatic transmission. The J-2 engine was rated at 300hp and 415 ft lbs of torque. In 1957 this was one of the fastest production cars on the market and had a NASCAR history for winning races. Today it still stands as an iconic car. Don't miss out on this beauty!
