The car available for rental is an almost all original 1951 Oldsmobile 88. For some-one looking for a special ride, this is a part of American history. The interior is clean and can accommodate up to four passengers, three on the back seat and one in front. For classic car aficionados, it has the original Rocket 8 V-8 engine, as well as a Hydramatic transmission. Due to its age, please be aware that there is no mechanical air-conditioning, which can have an impact during summer daytime rentals.
The total charge will include time to and from your location. When making your initial reservation request, please indicate the expected time at your (pickup) location, with a minimum of 30 minutes. Also, indicate other locations that will be included in the drive, e.g. drop-off location. I will review the expected total rental time and let you know if more than the minimum three hours will be required.
The car is available for chauffeured driving, e.g. weddings, prom night, anniversary evening out, etc., and events, e.g. engagement photos, movie shoots, event display, etc., but not for self-drive rentals.
Please note that DriveShare does also take a security deposit, of $250. This is to cover any non-insurance issues that might occur, such as extra cleaning of the car interior, etc. To date this deposit has been returned in a few days after all my rentals.

Original Hydramatic
Serving the greater Atlanta Metro area, and surrounding towns. The rental period starts when I leave my location, until my return home, with a minimum of three hours. When making a reservation, please indicate the planned locations of the rental, and expected time at each location, if more than just pickup or drop-off. I will calculate the total rental period and advise you if more than the three hour minimum will be needed. For wedding reception getaway rentals, I usually include 30 minutes at the pickup location, unless more is requested.
