Futuramic Oldsmobile 1949

 

The Hydra-Matic Drive transmission is now standard on 88 and 98 series. All closed models are available with standard or de luxe equipment.
The new 'Holiday Coupé' become available on the '98' chassis early in the year.


First came the New Look. Now Oldsmobile brings you the Futuramic successor to the New Look! It's "The New Thrill!" And you'll find it at the wheel of a new Futuramic Oldsmobile! Not only a "New 'Thrill" in eye-appeal – but a "New Thrill" in performance, too! All because the new Futuramic "Eights" have the revolutionary "Rocket" Engine. The new Futuramic "Sixes" have an improved "Big Six" Engine. All offer GM Hydra-Matic Drive – to point up Oldsmobile's "New- Thrill!"


Here it is – Oldsmobile's revolutionary, Valve-in-Head, High-Octane, "Rocket" Engine! Designed to match the superlative styIing of the Futuramic car, this new power plant is here this year in the Futuramic Oldsmobile "88" and "98" Series. The "Rocket" is all new in concept and design – the source of the most sensational highway action you've ever know. You've got to try it to believe it! It's Oldsmobile's "New Thrill"
