Hint: Think Corvette but picture Oldsmobile... www.gatewayautomuseum.com/cars/index.php?gallery=f88Click the "on Display" link to learn more. After spending decades as a collection of parts stuffed into wooden crates – the F-88 was reassembled. In 1954 – the F-88 was a Motorama “Dream Car” and was one of only two – or an unconfirmed possible three ever created. The F-88 seen here is literally the only car left of its kind – and was sold to John and Maureen Hendricks at the prestigious Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona for an unbelievable $3,240,000. This acquisition made automotive history and is the “cornerstone” of the Gateway Colorado Automobile Museum in its own special room in a rotating display worthy of the F-88! Pat P. :teacher |

Beautiful. Kept the spinner wheel covers. Reminiscent of an early Corvette with bullet tail lights. Grille/bumper pure Olds.
