1964 Oldsmobile Jetstar I

Oldsmobile produced this high-performance sports car for the model years 1964 and ’65. It was a two-door hardtop vehicle, which took inspiration from the Oldsmobile 88. The Jetstar I is sometimes confused with the Jetstar 88, a cheaper B-body multi-model car with an A-body running gear.

While it retained the 345-hp 394 engine, dual exhaust, suspension, concave rear window, bucket seats, console and tach of the Starfire, the Jetstar I was otherwise decontented. There was less exterior bright trim and Morocceen (vinyl) replaced the leather upholstery.
