Bill do you remember the color or other info about your Jetfire? I wonder if it’s still around. We have a registry with about 15 automatic Jetfires.

Bill,
We have one like that in the registry, it has 14,000 miles but is not running and the engine and sub frame were out. Its in New York but I haven't talked to the guy in a few years. In this photo, the car is on jack stands and the front wheels are just set in place. Do you think this could be your old car?

My eBay auction got copied and put on a classified ad website US Classifieds4all. Ad is for about half of what I am asking. Don’t fall for it you will lose your money. Looks like the ads are mostly scams on there.

My eBay auction is back up. I think this car would do great at a Mecum, so that's my next move it it doesn't sell on eBay.

The 1963 4 speed Jetfire is SOLD and is on it way to be in a museum in England. I would have rather it stayed in the USA with an enthusiast but it didn’t work out that way. Not many people are aware of these cars and at car shows it’s the only car people really look at for a long time. I just took my 1962 Jetfire to a judged show on Sunday and took 2nd place behind a concours Ferrari 330. But way more people were crowded around my car all day then the Ferrari.

I went to Half Moon Bay, Ca. this past Sunday and took a few photos of this Olds.
I’m not sure of its authenticity.

Yes I know the car. It was beige and an automatic. Converted to a 4 speed and painted non factory color and top. Very pretty car, was in the Ramshead collection for a while. Recently purchased by an employee of the collector. Must have been crowds around it.
