Lots of records on file.Oldsmobile had just finished a redesign of the 1954 model year of the 88. It was designed as a squarer, slab-sided design that featured 18 solid colors and 18 two-tone color combinations. All had wrap-around windshields. The 88 was the entry-level model car for Oldsmobile and featured the "Rocket" V8 engine. In 1955 much didn't change. The biggest difference was the Oldsmobile nameplate went from the hood to floating on the grille. 1950's Oldsmobile's were known for the quality of construction, decent performance, durability, and the fact that they were pretty well-equipped compared to its competitors.You'd be hard pressed to find a finer example for this price range - cost to restore one is much greater.Make a fair offer and let's make a deal.
