1956 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight Custom Additional Info:

Vehicle Original VIN : 568C2518Award-worthy paint, a custom leather interior, a full air ride suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and a big 455 V8 under the hood – this 1956 Oldsmobile Super 88 is a stunning one-of-a-kind that's so unique and powerful that it cannot escape the spotlight. This is the golden era of post-WWII cars, and this custom Olds shows it perfectly. You can see some of the lineage to the iconic shoebox Chevys in details like the fenders and the sexy dip in the doorline. Plus, GM cars seem to be the best at integrating the bumper and grille into one beautiful shape. But Oldsmobile was also free to have a style all its own. Great details like the sexy dip in the doorline, rocket jet hood ornament, and bullet-shaped tail lights remain. And the chrome bumper and side trim have the kind of mirror-like shine that you'll see the ladies use to check their lipstick. But that is not why you love this one. Instead, you want this Olds for its total custom sleekness. This was given a full frame-off restoration that was a five-year project ending in 2017. You can see the difference with the sheet metal that has been massaged to show quality standards. Then a classic red and black color combo was laid down on top. It's a high-quality single-stage application to give it the right old-school vibe. And the sleek shine looks so good, you'll be glad they deleted the badging and door handles just so you better see how the light rolls over this car so evenly. Add in custom touches like the wide exhaust tips and large Boss 18-inch wheels, and you've got a great classic that has been transformed into an outstanding custom. When you open the door, the red returns on the dash, and the black is on the door panels, carpeting, and headliner to give the impression of a thoughtfully planned custom inside and out. We especially love the black upholstery that has red contrast stitching and custom 88 headrests. And it's done in supple leather with terrific bolstering to be more comfortable than anything that came out of the 1950s. There are plenty of upgraded conveniences like the remote door popper, a cup holder center console, and an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input for your phone. There are also provisions for A/C and power windows if you choose to service them. This one was built to be a fun cruiser, and so you have a sports steering wheel on a polished tit column, and the center console's auxiliary readouts remind you that this is a Rocket 88. And we like that they still left the classic dials within all these upgrades just so you can admire its bright and symmetrical design as you go for a drive. Plus, you have a wired remote for the air ride control so that you can dial in your ideal stance everywhere you arrive. Just like the rest of this car, the engine bay is made to be on display. Custom smooth inner walls, extra polished components, and tidy tuckered wires and hoses make it award-worthy. And we love how even the motor has a touch of black and red pinstripes to go with the car's full color theme. This is a big 455 cubic-inch Old big block. We're told it was rebuilt with big heads and to W30 specs. There's also an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, and shorty headers. The full package is estimated at 425 horsepower! But it's not just a pure power machine. This like to be a true cruiser with a motor that fires up eagerly, idles smoothly, and features like the Griffin aluminum radiator with electric fan help keep it running right even in traffic. There's even a tubular A-arm front end, rear sway bar, power steering, four-wheel power disc brakes, and a stout but smooth TH400 three-speed automatic transmission. This is the unique Holiday Hardtop Olds that has quality investment to deliver an all-around awesome cruising attitude. It's the kind of classic car fun that's absolutely irresistible. Call today!!!
