Oldsmobile…think it’s a 55, might be 54. My first car was a 53 Olds 88.

PHeymont — you owned a Rocket 88?  Remember that old song by Ike Turner and Jackie Brentson?  Here’s the you-tube link to remind those who may have forgotten this classic song — one of the first Rock ‘n Roll tunes ever.

Great Pic!

I’ve got to get the Cuban secrets for contolling rust.  Amazing they are able to keep those cars up with the limited parts they have for them

I recall as a boy my dad’s best friend had a Pontiac like this.  It was a beautiful car and the pride of his life.  It ended up being totaled in a car crash (he survived), but I still remember his pride in showing off the polished beauty!  His was two tone brown, I think.
