existence. (read the story below) John S. Hendricks,
(Discovery Communications founder) paid in excess of
$3 million to acquire.
1954 Oldsmobile F-88 Convertible Concept Car
After spending decades as a collection of parts stuffed into wooden crates the F-88 was reassembled.
In 1954 the F-88 was a Motorama Dream Car and was one of only two or an unconfirmed possible three ever created.
The F-88 seen here is literally the only car left of its kind and was sold to John and Maureen Hendricks at the prestigious Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona for an unbelievable $3,240,000. This acquisition made automotive history and is the cornerstone of the Gateway Colorado Automobile Museum in its own special room in a rotating display worthy of the F-88!
