    I paid close attention as you took me around that car showing me how wonderful and original it is. I can understand your vision and desire to chop that baby but just because you can doesn’t mean you should. When something has survived so long……. Look, it’s your car, just be sure because as you know, it can only be original once.

    What an awesome Oldsmobile, if it were me I would resist the temptation to cut & chop. The car is way to nice and very valuable as a stock car with the low mileage.

    You have a beautiful Oldsmobile 1951-88 regardless they change the color the red looks fantastic. If you want to see one chopped up I'll send you pictures of my 1950 Oldsmobile two-door futuramic. Now it had to supercharged engine in it originally from what I was told it was junk. This car floated around people's garages for about 40 years. It is a tribute to Al gross. He was NASCAR before NASCAR was even NASCAR. If you like NASCAR pick the driver it should be the 13th commandment now she knows everything about Al gross if you're going to be a driver in NASCAR. Anyway Richard Petty Jr Johnson among the other contemporaries, all spoke very highly of Al gross. So the car is not just a tribute to him and his blue and white with number 88 on it also red interior. But some liberties have been taken like the modified Monte Carlo frame it sets on. Chrome reverse baby moons and so much rubber under the back there's a quarter inch Total space between the tires and inner and outer side to the fenders! It has a modified Corvette drivetrain. It has a floor shifter. Sounds cool doesn't it? But your little riddles mobile is so much cooler and nicer don't ever chop it up. There are other Oldsmobiles out there to chop up plenty of that. You know 49 through 53 look a lot alike. Mine is a example of a car chopped up and that category. Oh I know all of its shortcomings but it's a very nice of done tribute to the man. If you Google them you won't find near the information you should. This car with its factory supercharged engine was unbeatable and it was the super bird of its day! So you're 51 Olds 88 is actually in a fine brotherhood! They are the beginning of the hot rods. Overhead valves and so forth they predate the Chevy by about 5 to 7 years depending on which tripod you want to point out as performance straight off the dealership floor. We both know later in the 60s and especially today they all pale and comparison to what we can buy today if you have that much money in the bank. If I did I think I'd rather keep it there. If for some reason you think you would like mine better I talk with you but I sure like yours at 51 olds. You know they had about three different lengths for the two door and the 88 model for 1950. I need the low plastic trim around the window on the inside of the passenger door window. I thought about getting it made or trying to make it myself cutting something down because they tell me mine is the shortest. I don't know if that's all 100% correct but I've gone years without that piece of trim in my car. It's always good to have all your piece of trims in the car. Fantastic car I like what you do on your channel.

    In 1964 my school Buddy, Rudy, had a 51 Olds 2 door, like yours…Super88 V8 with three two barrel carbs, progressive linkage and a Crower cam .. I had a two door 1953 Desoto sedan with beautiful gray crush velour interior and bench seats.. My dad helped me install a 331 Chrysler Firepower Hemi with a Holly 4 barrel and then adapted a 1939 Cadillac Lasalle top shifter all synchro transmission.. everyone else at Soquel high had Chevys and Fords.. Rudy and I would race and I would take him at the low end and he would pass me at the top end. I think my rear end gear ratio was too low for that engine.. that’s a beautiful car brother .. enjoy✌️

    My very first car I owned and bought and paid for myself was a 1953 Oldsmobile 2 door coupe similar to this. It was 1966 as I best remember and I paid $250 for it. Ran great! No power steering and drank the gas but still a solid set of wheels. I think also 53’ was the first year Olds put hydraulic lifters in the engine. It would click, chick, click as it idled. My advice is leave your car original. It’s a beauty. Nice video Jolene. Good job.

If you need to customize a 51 Oldsmobile then go buy another one that is not as nice as this red one! Do not molest this car!

    Majority of the best show-winning resto-mods start as very clean, very straight survivors before builders "make them their own". Everyone needs to chill out and remember that Chad is a car builder. It's what he does and it's his property to do with it what he pleases. May be "dumb" to some of you, but there are plenty of us that love and respect the idea of chopping her.

    • @flobremaud54
