Despite only being months away from the complete switch to full wartime production, 1941 held promise for Oldsmobile with its two-millionth automobile produced that year. The three-series model line comprised the entry-level Series 60, the mid-range Series 70 and the longer-wheelbase, top-level Series 90. All three were available with a choice of a six- or an eight-cylinder L-head engine, offering 100 and 110 bhp respectively.

Stylistically, the entire Oldsmobile line was revised, most notably with the headlamps moved forward and revised front fenders. The landmark Hydra-Matic automatic transmission continued for 1941 and provided Oldsmobile buyers unprecedented ease of operation for an additional $100. A variety of solid and two-tone color combinations, plus such comprehensive options as a radio, clock, turn signals, a locking gas tank door and the Condition-Air heater/defroster system, enhanced the value-packed Oldsmobile experience.

Remarkably original, this top-of-the-line 1941 Oldsmobile 96 three-passenger Club Coupe is one of only 2,176 examples originally built, and it has traveled only about 28,000 original miles at the time of writing. In addition to its robust six-cylinder powerplant, this very fine example is equipped with the desirable Hydra-Matic automatic transmission, rear-fender skirts and attractive factory trim moldings. It is reported by the owner to run very well and may well be one of the finest examples of a 1941 Series 96 Club Coupe remaining today.
