Never been crazy about those "chrome everywhere" era cars. But then, having said that, I must admit this one is stunning ! 🤩 And the man did it all in less than a year !? Absolutely incredible ! Kudos to you Sir ! And happy cruising on warm, summer Friday nights ! 😁
I am an Oldsmobile fan too, and I gave my 1966 Oldsmobile to my son and he has done it up to!and it's a really great car. So I can appreciate the value in what it takes to make a car original again. Thank you for your barn find series
50 years from now they'll say the same thing about today's cars, the first thing will be "That's back when cars actually ran off gasoline". When I was in high school in the early 80's you could get V8 powered cars like mid to late 70's Camaro's and TA's for $500 to $1,500, a high school kid working part time in the evenings could afford one. People looked at them as just used cars, and during that time nobody but gear heads wanted a "gas guzzler" V8, and on top of that despite the way people carry on about them in this day and age they were considered "junk" by your average person.
@@dukecraig2402 Today’s cars simply are better than the early de-smogged cars of my youth, in the ‘70s and ‘80s. Setting aside today’s sporty cars, today’s family minivans are much faster, handle better, and work reliably for much longer than most of what was produced back then. Today is the golden age of the ICE automobile. If you appreciate ‘70s and ‘80s cars as semi-mobile pieces of period art, OK, but they mostly weren’t great cars if you take off the nostalgia goggles.

My father's favourite car ! 1957 Canadian Oldsmobile 88. 4 door sedan, 371 4 barrel. In his words, " Looks like it is moving, even when it is sitting still ! " Miss you Dad!
In 1968 my 8th grade science teacher, Mr Sprague gave me a 57 olds. 4 door HT supper 88 ...... 371 Tri-power, 3 tone paint etc. I drove it to the Pontiac dealer in town where I worked as “Lot Boy” and gopher this n that. Great memories. I’m very glad y’all followed up on the present day owner and caretaker of one fine automobile. Thank You all
My Grandpa had a 1961 Oldsmobile Super 88, Red interior & exterior with lots of chrome. He bought it new & boy that was a beautiful car, those eliptical gauges on the dash were unique. He would drive this car & take me fishing when I was a little kid & I still remember the smell of that car & how awesome it was.
Fantastic to see the continuation of this cars next lease in Life, its always amazed me how you are able to still find collections like, still out in the world. Its sad to think that some of those cars, will never be able to once again hit the open road. But then stories like this, shows that some of the lucky ones are given a second chance. Well done and thanks to at Hagerty for showing us, let's hope we can all one day, get back out onto the open road. Safe journeys
I watched the barnfind video and wished I was there. This video is a great outcome. I really like the fact that the car will not be just put on display. It will be driven and admired by all.
That last scene with Davin checking out the features was gold. That little giggle at the end when he turns on the radio would be my exact reaction. Love it.
I always come away from either a Tom or Davin episode with good vibes. These gentlemen exemplify all the good of the hobby - as supported by the mighty Hagerty! (I just got my 10 year anniversary card from Hagerty in the mail this week. Very clever card!) -Ed on the Ridge
I had one of these 57 Oldsmobile 88's with tri-power when I was in my teens (i;m in my 70's now) Remember it well and loved it. Sadly, it finally locked up and I scarped it. This brings back many great memories!
My dad had a 54 the same colour setup as that 57, he loved and spoke lovingly about it till his death 5 yrs ago. I always was on the look out for one. The only reason he sold it at the time was i was an infant and couldn’t catch my breath in the back with the top/windows down. So the story goes, great to see that beauty back on the road.
Great episode brought back memories about fifteen years old had a ride in a 1957 Super 88 J2 2 door hardtop two tone brown. The sound when the tri power opened up and the right rear tire started smoking changed my life.
This brought back a wonderful memory. My cousin from south central PA near Hancock MD owned one of these that he raced on route 40 at Hancock. All the local hot rods raced on 40 on the weekends. The only thing I remember him doing to it was he had a friend in a transmission shop put a shift kit in it. Normal shifting from second gear (passing gear) when held wide open was 78 to 80 mph. With the shift kit it didn't shift out of second until 105 and at that point it ran the speedometer out of numbers. My ride with him he proved to me what it would do and shortly after he ran it out of numbers yanked his foot out of it. I asked, junior what's the top end on this thing? Junior replied, I don't know im afraid to hold it. I remember I was still living at home hadn't graduated high school yet so this was somewhere in 1968/1969. Thank you for reminding me.
Really appreciate that you show a resorted barn find on the show. I always wondered after an episode if the cars you show get a restoration. Compliments from Holland.
I'm not a car restorer as I don't have the resources or time. However, since I've watched a few of Tom's videos, I find myself looking at barns and old garages with a new interest. I've spotted a few old mustangs and other cars on my travels through the countryside around my home. Maybe spotting barn/field finds is a hobby unto itself.
When the guy at the end turn the radio on, you have to wait for the tubes to warm up before the radio works. Sometimes takes a minute or so but if he would have waited. Very cool Olds.
That car is a work of art what a beautiful piece of engineering and design. Love seeing the effort that you blokes put into restoring it. Brilliant 👍👌👏
My Dad had a 58 Oldsmobile conv that was white with a red interior. Brings back My youth memories. That car was heavy but would lay rubber like was hard to believe
Beautiful car and fantastic restoration job! My dad had a 1958 Rocket 88 with Tri power, was a fun car. I remember dad showing us how fast it was by flooring it and the speedo hit 120 and my mom just said his name and he took his foot off the gas. BTW no seat belts.
there are a few 1957 "98" oldsmobile Convertibles sitting in a farmer's field here in Kansas. along with the Convertibles, there's a "98" 2-door hardtop, a 1964 Chevrolet Chevelle SS Convertible, a garage of '61-'67 Impala Convertibles, and many other cars laying around. would make a very cool "barn find hunter" episode if you were ever in Eastern Kansas.
My best friend and I were second owners of a 1964 Pontiac Bonneville. It was all original and we kept it that way. When we got it, things were found in the glove box and storage well (it was a station wagon) that had been in the car since new. Included in the glove box was an Exxon map of the USA from 1964. Drawn on the map was the route the family took from Sacramento, CA to the east coast and back that year. Marked on the map were odometer mileage at various locations and names of some of the places they stayed. We had loads of fun with the car for over 20 years. A worthy owner now drives it around Mass.
its amazing what mice can get into, and how destructive they are. glad they were able to save the block. I have a 58 Cadillac and they are prone to head cracking as well...narrow heads with not as much metal as needed in some vulnerable areas like exhaust valves. gorgeous car...so glad they preserved an original instead of losing all that history in a full resto or restomod.
Love them Oldsmobiles, that was an amazing find. Glad to see a rare classic back on the road, I'll bet he can't go anywhere without a crowd admiring that beautiful machine. Makes me want to get back to work on my 65 Olds Jetstar convertible.
I had a 57 olds sold it in 2013 before retiring to Florida. I lived in Marine City Michigan. The first guy that looked at it bought it. I drove it up on his trailer. I had over 100,000 miles and it ran good.
Fun story: in 1993 found a tri-power setup at a yard sale in poor condition. Had intake and carbs but no linkage. Took it to a guy restoring a 66 GTO to see if he wanted it to upgrade to tri-power over the factory 4-bbl. He was excited... until we looked at his Pontiac intake and this garage sale unit. NOT the same at all. Turned out to be a Olds J2 setup! Sold it via a classified ad in the local paper. Hopefully still out there as part of a cool restoration. Thanks again

If you ever have driven a car with a tube radio it takes a while to warm up most times it starts playing when you have arrived at work or school.
Yea, like TV's back then, turn one on and you might as well head for the kitchen and make a sandwich, you got enough time to.
I still play tube guitar amps. I turn it on and find something else to do for a few minutes. lol
