JaCG reader, Spencer, sent me the link to this car with an e-mail that said: "I thought you might get a kick out of this car that's for sale on ebay. Apparently its a 1936 Oldsmobile, the seller doesn't provide a whole
lot of information, I can't figure out what kind of model it is".
I can't figure it out either...
There doesn't appear to be many 1936 parts on this car. The headlights, maybe? The frame?
Based on the rust, the body is metal. It's impressive looking, in a weird sort of way.
The engine is a 400 ci Oldsmobile V8. To the best of my knowledge, these were built from the mid to late sixties. The seller says it has a standard transmission, but the shift gate sure looks like it's from an automatic. The dash is late sixties / early seventies GM.
This is not my type of car, but if you're into American cars / hot rods / homemade cars and MASSIVE projects, it may be worth taking a look at. It appears as if it's being offered without a reserve.
