An amazing and rare collector car with the J2 Rocket option (Tri

　　Power). This elegant and timeless classic dominates the road with

　　unprecedented styling and power. I think this is one of the

　　best-looking cars of the 50s, it's rolling art. Owned over 10 years

　　by the owner of Abernathy Restorations.

　　EXTERIOR: The body lines are simply striking and speak for

　　themselves. The 1957 was an all new look with rakish lower

　　roofline, low cut doors give it a custom look and a unique 3 piece

　　rear window. This one has a very clean body that is straight, and

　　the panels line up flush and square. I remember the first time I

　　saw this car, the all white really impressed me. It has a smooth

　　glossy finish too. The abundance of chrome trim is impressive and

　　in very nice condition. To make it even more stunning it is rolling

　　on a set of chrome wire wheels wrapped in radial wide whitewalls.

　　Absolutely stunning overall.

　　INTERIOR: The matching white upholstery was hand stitched. The

　　seats and side panels were all handmade. It has a sharp looking

　　dash area full of chrome, the gauge cluster is a work of art in

　　itself. It has optional padded dash; passenger corner is pulled up.

　　We did pull the gauges and sent the speedometer and fuel gauge out

　　to be restored.

　　ENGINE COMPARTMENT: It's really special under the hood. This one

　　has the J2 performance engine. It's a 371 with 3 two barrel carbs

　　on top making 300 hp and 414 lbs of torque! That's impressive for

　　1957. It also features power steering. The engine compartment was

　　taken apart, restored and detailed. The manifolds were ceramic

　　coated, carbs were restored, valve covers were rechromed. All the

　　components look proper. Everything is painted very neatly. Upgraded

　　with modern electric wipers. Looking in this engine compartment

　　makes me very happy.

　　TRUNK COMPARTMENT: This big trunk is lined in carpet. It is

　　complete with a jack and spare. It has an optional trunk light

　　too.

　　UNDERSIDE: The underside presents very nicely overall. It looks

　　like it has original rock solid floors and inner rockers.

　　Maintained as needed, we did extensive work on the power brake

　　system. New custom dual exhaust with welded joints and Hushpower

　　mufflers. Looking up at the motor and trans it is clean. Oldsmobile

　　called their 4-speed automatic the Jetaway. The trans has been

　　serviced. It's been cleaned and freshened up with some black

　　paint.

　　SERVICE: We inspected the car and spent $3,714 on service. We

　　rebuilt the rear wheel cylinders, some hard lines were replaced,

　　the master cylinder and power booster were rebuilt then the system

　　was bled. The gauge cluster was pulled: speedometer and fuel gauge

　　were sent out for restoration. The fuel sending unit, alternator

　　and turn signal switch were replaced. It has a fresh oil change.

　　This beauty is ready to cruise.

　　The overall styling and visual appeal of this impressive classic is

　　unmatched. The NASCAR grand national championship was one in a J2

　　57 Olds in 1957!

　　I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for

　　virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant

　　amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my

　　professional impression of the vehicle. Our salesmen are happy to

　　assist with descriptions and making sure your questions are

　　answered. One great suggestion is letting us do a walk around video

　　that explains the car's condition in detail. **These cars are

　　displayed in a museum. If interested in a particular car, make an

　　appointment with a salesman to see that car. Without an appointment

　　there is an admission fee to enter the showroom. If you buy a car,

　　your admission will be refunded, and you will be given a 1 year

　　membership.
