Oldsmobile

Oldsmobile is one of the oldest American automakers, established in 1897. While many people believe that the Ford Model T was the first mass-produced automobile, the Oldsmobile Model R was actually the first mass-produced car to roll off of an assembly line. The 1960s would be a new and prosperous period for Oldsmobile as they ventured into the performance car segment. Oldsmobile's F-85 would be introduced in 1961 as a compact sedan with a 215 CID V8. The Oldsmobile 442 was the high-performance offshoot of the F-85. The Oldsmobile Cutlass would also be one of the brand’s most successful models. It was also one of the best-selling American cars in the 1970s and 1980s. Check out our Oldsmobile catalog below to learn more.
