Historically, ldsmobile has been considered one of GM's upscale brands that enjoyed a niche market by offering the latest in technical engineering and design. The prices were higher than other GM brands and buyers were willing to pay extra to get the latest in optional features, he most advanced engine/transmission design and a higher level of quality in the general build, it and finish. The Dynamic 88 was offered with the Rocket 371 V8 engine and had many different body styles. Over time, he hard top coupes have emerged as the most popular model because of the appearance of the sleek lines created by the large side openings in the cabin when both front and rear windows are rolled down eliminating the B-pillar. The SceniCoup was the official name given to these models on the 1960 Olds 88's. The over all design with the curved, ubbled theme and horizontal rear fins was emerging in the late 50's and early 60's. This era of design styling has since been nick-named the jet era. The Olds 88's has sensational curb appeal with exaggerated bubble appearance in the rear quarter sections of the body and the rounded glass sections. Also the long side body lines sloping downward in the rear section give the body a stretched look that we classic car enthusiasts can't seem to get enough of. This Dynamic 88 ScinCoup is a beautiful original car that has been very well preserved over the years with a stunning, traight body and a high gloss paint finish that was redone a few years back and still looks fresh. It has a scratch on the lowest section of the side of the car that was brush touched. Otherwise near perfect! The interior is extra clean with lots of new upholstery and refinished surfaces so that your passengers will be dazzled on the inside too. It drives like you are riding on a cloud and the transmission shifts smoothly. It's a joy to spend time in and to be seen in. This is a car that can be driven to work on nice weekdays and then displayed at classic car shows and cruise nights on nights and weekends.
