1954 Oldsmobile F-88 only saw 4 units built, Corvette chassis.
The 1954 Oldsmobile F-88 only saw 4 units built before the project was canceled, but only one car still exists today. With a 250 horsepower Rocket 88 324 V8 engine and a fiberglass lightweight exterior, this could've been a very exciting sports car. The Oldsmobile F-88 was made on a Corvette chassis. At that time, Corvette only had 6 cylinder motors so Oldsmobile used their own 324 V8 engine.

Not a fan of the color, but that's really sharp looking.

One of them was purchased by the owner of the Discovery Channel for a car museum he built in Gateway, CO. He paid north of $3M for it. The museum was full of rare cars, and was free. Unfortunately it closed late last year and all cars are headed to auction.
Link to article. It sold for $1.75M at the Monterey auction late last year. New owner hasn’t been disclosed. https://www.broadarrowauctions.com/v...88-concept-car |
