Scott Johnson hauled his latest uncovering to Junkyard Life headquarters inwards Alabama 1967 Oldsmobile F-85 survivor reveals a two-tone Cutlass on the cheap

Olds it! Right there! Our Junkyard Life Brother in addition to resident Oldsmobile parts source, Scott Johnson, has scored i time again. Scott showed upwards at Junkyard Life’s globe headquarters amongst an awesome barn uncovering – (almost) fresh from the barn.
I couldn’t halt looking at this fabulous event of Oldsmobile history in addition to American machine culture. This machine exactly jibe right in! Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 1967 Oldsmobile F-85! This i is a 4-door sedan, every bit good known to enthusiast every bit a “Town Sedan” due to having the loved in addition to hated post dividing the windows.
F-85 was the designation for the base of operations model, apparently Jane, point-A-to-point-B, Oldsmobile inwards 1967. Living inwards the entry score spectrum amongst lower-priced models such every bit the Chevelle 300, Chevrolet Biscayne, Ford Falcon Futura in addition to Dodge Dart. The F-85 was the best value Olds inwards the line-up. However, Oldsmobile wasn’t known for edifice basic cars. This F-85 STILL had options! Lets stimulate got a facial expression at Scott’s F-85.

Push push AM radio in addition to a actually cool “F-85” emblem. Cool!

Two-tone roof in addition to painted drip rails. Expensive in addition to inexpensive on the same roof?

Options, options, options
Immediately, nosotros noticed the two-tone paint. An eye-relaxing, maroon in addition to white combo. Very cool in addition to I imagine that every bit attractive every bit it looks now, dorsum inwards piece of cake June of 1967, it was only irresistible on the showroom. Some lucky client walked into Miley Olds inwards Sheffield, Alabama in addition to idea the same thing. Paint codes N-C come upwards dorsum to the correct, every bit it sits, Burgundy Mist in addition to Provincial White. But leave of absence along looking!
This machine every bit good has AC in addition to ability steering. I halfway expected it to stimulate got ability brakes (it did not), although the brakes would stimulate got been drums in addition to non disc. So, tin y'all imagine paying for those options in addition to yet, no carpet? It's true, most F-85 models did non fifty-fifty stimulate got carpet, exactly a utilitarian dark mat for those who wore shoes inwards the 1960s. The Oldsmobile does stimulate got bench seats, front end in addition to rear, that are inwards bully shape. The master copy AM radio lives inwards i of the most perfect dash boards nosotros stimulate got always seen.

330 cubes of Olds Rocket ability – fifty-fifty saddled amongst a 2-barrel carburetor the V8 pumped out 250 horses.

Power hungry
This buyer did non settle for the half dozen cylinder inwards this economic scheme model. They checked i to a greater extent than box, scoring the 330 C.I.D V-8, making a real respectable 250 hp, fifty-fifty amongst a miserly 2-barrel carburetor. It fifty-fifty had the famous Olds Jetaway automatic 2-speed transmission. Drag racers dear those now.
Really, it doesn’t affair how this Olds was optioned. We would stimulate got loved it anyway. This Rocket is inwards bully form overall with no rust showing. We dear it.
Great find, Scott!
