1963 Oldsmobile Jetfire turbocharged

Description

Extremely Rare collector/museum/show car 1963 Oldsmobile Jetfire, a one year body style, pillarless hardtop with a turbocharged/ fluid injectedversion of the 215 Aluminum V8, dubbed Turbo-Rocket. This made the Jetfire the first ever turbocharged production car. Equipped with a Garrett Airesearch turbocharger and a sidedraft one-barrel draw-through carburetor, the Turbo Rocket engine was rated a 215 hp and 300 lb ft torque. Ultimately the Jetfire engine was far ahead of its time which makes this 1963 with its complete turbocharged system intact one of less than 20 known left functioning.
