Ransom Eli Olds established the Olds Motor Company in 1897 and left the company in 1904 to form the REO Motor Car Company. Often referred to as Olds Automobiles, it was common to call them Oldsmobiles, a name that became popularized in a 1905 song. The Oldsmobile Curved Dash was produced from 1902 to 1907, and it’s credited as being the first mass-produced car. Throughout its storied history, Oldsmobile was well regarded as a pioneer of engineering and performance, always pushing the boundaries to see what could be had next, over and above the previous great.
This 1932 Sport Coupe is presented in the period-popular color scheme of two-tone tan and brown with exceptional pinstripe detailing, whitewall tires and a beige interior. Powered by the 240 CI inline 8-cylinder engine with a 3-speed and floor shift, a cursory glance easily reveals why Oldsmobile was so often credited as the sportier car for people of means.
