'63 Oldsmobile Jetfire factory Turbo, aluminum V8
Selling my Jetfire I had for 5 years, all rebuilt and excellent. Very rare, maybe 5 of these left with factory turbo, methanol injection, 4 speed, posi. If you don't know what a Jetfire is, you are not alone. Please read the eBay ad for a full description.
MAKE OFFER https://www.ebay.com/itm/225415873414 I owned many 68 and 69 Camaros, including a ZL1 powered 69 Camaro, but when I discovered Jetfires they kind of took me over. I am really impressed with the engineering of the Turbo Rocket engine. And talk about rare. Car shows are a lot of fun. A year before the 442,GTO, Mustang, Barracuda, etc., Oldsmobile made a Turbocharged, Aluminum V8, 4 speed, posi, Methanol injected, 4 link rear, 2750lb car. Is this really the first muscle car? "You can only look at so many Camaros and Mustangs"-Jay Leno after seeing a Jetfire.

I am in the San Diego area. This car won 1st place in the shows it attended in the last 2 years, 2 of the shows were AACA judging and it has been invited to the Concours D’ Elegance in La Jolla Ca by a Senior Judge for that show. But it is sure fun to drive it!

----These Jetfire Turbo's are rare enough, but when you add 4-speed the rarity goes up, up, up! I had a 63 Jetfire with 3,500 original miles back in the late 70's. It was totally untouched and a beauty, but it was equipped with an auto. At the time I agonized over selling it, because I knew I'd never see another. Mainly because of the trans I pulled the trigger and sold it thru auction. Had it been a 4-speed I might still have it as I didn't have a huge amount of money in it at that time!.....Bill S
