Finished in a beautiful Provincial White exterior over a Red Morroceen vinyl interior, this is a highly optioned Starfire. The exterior paint shows well and the interior is one of the nicest to have come through our doors. Chrome trim pieces accent the red vinyl interior nicely and make for an extremely elegant environment.
For the 1966 year, Oldsmobile decided to remove many of the standard options previously optioned on the Starfire to boost sales of the front-wheel-drive Toronado. This meant that power steering, power brakes, and many other options were removed from the base Starfire. The example offered here has power steering and power brakes making it surprisingly maneuverable despite its large size. Mechanically this Starfire is sound as it runs and idles smoothly.
