Check out this thread. I detailed what I did. it was NOT easy and required a lot more pressure than I thought it would.

Long ago -- bought this new in 1957:

Stick shift post sedan. Later on it had a '37 LaSalle floor shift, later still a B&M hydro. Put 73,000 miles on it in 3 years.

 

This is my 54' super88 sedan. Just picked it up late October.

 

Not mine but a local car, 40 all enclosed coupe (Sloper)

 

Her it is in Norway after a long time waiting for it from Washington [emoji16] at Coupe Devils . Bonanza 2015. Some one told me that the car needed paint, so I added some [emoji13]

 

Funny, on about page 10 of this thread is my old 60 Olds and 38 Dodge (olds powered) from 2010.

Those are long gone, bought these last year. The grey primer one was canibalized for the 394.

 

In drag racing, when someone cuts a better light than you, we say you got "treed"; well, so did this Olds! I am Butch/56sedandelivery.

 

Papajohn, the wagon and convertible are like a His-n-Hers pair of classics. Very cool. Kind of a shame to cut up that 4 dr sedan. Someone from Norway or Sweden, would totally roll that Lansing express, down the road. I understand, since I cut up a '64 Super 88 4dr, like 8 years ago. Had the Starfire engine and factory a/c I needed, for MY convertible project.

Jake-that 4 door was a rust bucket! Typical NY car.

 

This is my 56 88

 

Wow, what a feast for the eyes, this morning. 3 real beauties.

 

Not mine, but my dads 53 98 hardtop.

 

That's my recently finished 50' Olds 88 4dr

Sorry to say but I've got to sell the "Ole Girl"

here's a pic of pop's '52 88

 

This is not my car, but I'd buy it in a minute if I could. Saw this picture on eBay several years ago:

...and then found this image elsewhere on the HAMB:

I'm pretty sure it's the same car with different shoes. I love it both ways!

 

The white walls and full wheel covers does it for me..
Very nice

 

I'm always thinking about having a set of old Daisys or similar to swap on to my 55 I figure it would look very different to wide whites full hubcaps and spats.

 

how about something a little older? my 1936 olds L36 business coupe

 

cube stude, just love the look of that front end, sanse the bumper. Entire car is quite nice. Olds power?????

not currently olds powered, but when the SBC it came with blows I am planning on olds...

What a great looking car. Love the skirts and the lower look. Reminds me of my 37 Chevy business coupe. I installed a 55 Chrysler 300 hemi 331c.i. in it and later sold it. Sad!!

 

Finishing up this 54 been sitting since 1959.

 

my 1961 Oldsmobile Sarfire

 

Had my 50 out Saturday

 

Couple more of this car. I had this from 1990 - 2010. Originally all white, switched to the blue around 2008. I saw a pic of this car recently, it has chrome Cragars and white lettered tires now.

 

I know its a little off topic but its a OLDS STATION WAGON. I sold her 12 years ago and just found her sitting in a garage for the last 10 years.I had to have her back. She road ready now and love driving her. The hardest part is keeping the people away when I take her food shopping.LOL. Bruce.
