what can you tell me about a 1964 olds dynamic?

[Johnny Blaze]

What platform is it on? Does it share anyparts with other makes?

After looking at it, I'd have to assume it's an X-frame car. If that's correct (and it should be), it shares the frame with the 64 Impala. Check Hotchkis for performance suspension parts.

According to wikipedia,

"An all-new body and chassis with perimeter "Guard Beam" frame and all-coil suspension replacing the previous leaf springs highlighted the 1961 full-sized Oldsmobiles"

hmmmm.

This is the 64 Impala X-frame:

This is an all-coil suspension, but not what I'd ever describe as perimeter.

Here's a picture of a 1962 Dynamic 88 frame.

Apparently Olds didn't follow the Chevy platform in those years. I was wrong. Since that's the case, who knows what suspension it used. It could be a one-year deal. Look at 64 Pontiac and Buick for possible chassis parts...that doesn't help. :(

Yeah, I'm with ya.

The 64 Buick Wildcat has the same lines, but has the Impala frame:

Looks like the Pontiac Catalina and Bonneville have the same frame as the Olds Dynamic.

Whenever looking for shots...check Ebay. They have a lot of undercar shots of most classic cars.

Good luck.
