In 1958, General Motors was celebrating their 50th year of production. Oldsmobile was certainly included in that party. That year they rolled-out a line up of cars featuring bold looks. It seemed that chrome was the preferred topping...and it was ladled on extensively. Long known for their excellent rocket engines, Olds continued to capitalize on the space vehicle theme by incorporating elements into their styling. With the aforementioned large amounts of sweeping chrome, as well as clever treatments to exterior lighting, you might have looked, or perhaps felt like you were leaving the launch pad. Whichever way you pointed your "ship", large lettering across the front of the hood let everyone else in the galaxy know that you were driving an OLDSMOBILE! When it's time for service and maintenance for yours, be sure to turn to the definitive source...this manual!
This factory-written shop manual is perfect for service, repairs, restoration and rebuild projects. Clear illustrations and photos show exploded views, as well as component details, plus specifications on engine data, engine torque, carburetion and more.
