  10. 1957 Olds and yes the fenders need to be peaked as you can see in this picture.

  11. 1956 Olds actually....and yes they require a peak on the fender to match.
    1955 Oldsmobile are very similar but don't have the peak at the top.

    Sancho nailed it. The all white car is definitely '56 Olds, the silver/orange one is difficult to see, but likely a '55, with no peak at the top.
     
  13. Yep, I stand corrected! Old age sucks...

    I just pulled this one out of my barn after sitting for about 20 years. Recently retired and it's time to get it on the road. It was a 1 owner, all original car when bought (now a 2 owner..lol). Plan is to do some body work (front fenders and front of rear wheelwells is the only rust), replace all the rubber, get it running and drive it daily in the summer. It ran and drove good when parked. Interior is all original and in good shape. Got a lot of NOS chrome and trim for it, so it should be a nice looker.

    Amazingly, the car was undercoated YEARS ago. When I peeled off some of the undercoating, I was just floored. The underside is almost nicer than the top!! Not a bit of rust! Usually undercoating causes rust after it degrades.
