This page gathers the Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser, the large American estate from Oldsmobile, carried in the register under the name Custom. The model names with suffixes such as STW for station wagon and the maker's own body codes such as AP35Y or BP35Y denote different equipment and engine variants of the same large full-size platform estate.

The register lists here 8 versions with 130 to 140 kW from six- to eight-cylinders of 2,990 to 5,700 cm³, unladen weights from 1,920 to 1,999 kg, a gross weight of 2,596 kg, lengths from 5,550 to 5,600 mm and widths from 2,020 to 2,070 mm.
The Custom Cruiser belonged to the class of large American estates that for decades served in the US as the family vehicle for long distances and heavy loads; at over 5.5 metres long and with six- to eight-cylinder engines, it represents a vehicle class barely seen in this form in Europe, where it mostly appears here as an imported or enthusiast's car.
On a used example of such a large American estate, rust at the sills, wheel arches and load-sill, the condition of the automatic transmission and axle suspension, and the condition of the carburettor or early fuel injection all matter above all; on imported cars, the registration history is worth checking. Parts for the American full-size platform estate run mainly through specialist US-car dealers.
