1963 Oldsmobile 98. Will it run? What did we just find under the seat?

[@OKHall]

My Dad had a 63 Nieghty Eight 4 door ht. That old car brings back memories since he is no longer with us. Thanks for that. We went on a lot of road trips with that old car. Glad to see that it still runs.

[@officehelp]

Isn't that first start the best feeling? Wish I still had the time & energy to work on these old rigs.

[@bryduhbikeguy]

Dang.Here in Michigan, that's considered Good condition, and someone would put in new trunk pan ,and lips. Nice that it fired up. It's well worth saving the drivetrain. Happy New Year. Thanks for sharing what you can.

Good morning from Cape Cod ⛵ I'm happy that Oldsmobile runs. I think it'll be an awesome motor for Hot rod project Brad 👍 May you have a prosperous and problem-free New Year ✌️🇺🇲

[@HomeMadeHotRods]

I enjoyed this video ...there are so many "will it runs" on KZbin too but this engine is a sweet find & unique which made it different! Have been gaining a new appreciation for 4 doors lately! This 98 has great lines & with that engine, it was a looker when new I am sure!! I went ahead & subscribed! Good job mate! Chris

Thanks so much for unearthing that '63 Olds Ninety-Eight. Like others, my father bought one EXACTLY like that (Black 4-dr HT with silver interior and the 345-horse 394 with 10.5:1 compression, new in 1963 (traded in our 1958 Plymouth Sport Wagon). This was Dad's favorite, and he would talk about it for decades, even after he traded it again in 1968. All 7 of us traveled cross country on family vaca's in that honey, w/ me perched atop a STOOL that Dad had to bolt to the floor in order for us to fit. Can you imagine that sh*t now??? Literally on his deathbed at 86, he told me how proud he was of me for being so brave as a child to sit on that stool. So, yeah, the sight of that car brings back wonderful memories to me. Thank you so much for finding one!!

My first car was a 64 olds 98 4dr hardtop, that’s a 394 rocket and they run really good. Sad that the trunk is gone, I love them big cruisers. I’d definitely save some parts off of it and sell parts, they’re a nightmare to find parts for.

I just love seein those old engines fire after sitting so long! Glad this one didn't fight you too much and sounded healthy! Nice to see you use two stroke gas to fill the bowls. So many times I see guys sprayin a can of brake clean down the throat and it makes me cringe! Enjoyed the video as usual, at least the ones that are too far gone can still be parts donors. Happy New Year Brad, hope your channel sees lots of growth, you deserve it! 👊

[@mynameis9057]

Nice 👍🎉 I'm trying to remember the old adage about rims, GM will fit itself, Ferd and Mopar will fit each other or it'll be close. I think the bolt pattern is the same but the center holes are different. It should have the 394 Cid 330 h.p. 10.25-1 high compression engine, yeehaa! She's a goer!👍 I love old muscle cars and older cars, after the mid 70's for me, that's a wrap. Another thing is don't use car covers on them! Dennis Collins on here recovers more cars then anyone, and he noticed that covered cars in the same spot compared to uncovered rotted way faster and worse cuz the cover traps the moisture and doesn't let it evaporate, so it rusts then rots the car to shit! Cool you made your costs back! She'll run!👍😁 Have you seen the rollers made from plywood? Dude just measured the bolt pattern, drilled holes and they worked!

394 nearly indestructible. Ticking will probably go away after a bit. Top fuel guys liked the 394 because you could bore them to over 500 cu in and they’d handle all kinds of blower pressure.
