The Oldsmobile Division was one of the first (1964) to produce a factory muscle car. They went really fast in a straight line but were not especially gentle.

Rick’s car is the perfect balance of luxury and performance, because it’s the last year before GM hobbled the high-horsepower 455-V8 engine due to insurance and emission regulations.

This is a piece of history that is being preserved, the way Oldsmobile intended.

If you have a classic car that you would like to see featured in the Glenbrook Globe, please reach out to Fred at 403-242-3856.
