For Sale: 1956 Oldsmobile 98 in Plainfield, Illinois

Vehicle Description

Nice driving classic!


This is the rare 98 holiday hardtop model and is loaded with options like power brakes, steering, window and even working power seat. Has the rare headlight dimmer too. 

Car runs and drives and is roadworthy. You can drive it on the highway. Dual exhaust sounds great. 

324ci "Rocket T350" V8 Engine

3 Speed Hydra-Matic Transmission

Body and paint is very good. No rust. Just a few small bubbles around rear window and one door bottom. Repainted once to original color scheme. Undercarriage very solid. No holes or weak areas in floors or trunk pan. Inner rockers and fenders solid. I only found a small amount of filler in one place in inner quarter panel. This is a very solid car. 

Chrome is decent but has a couple pieces that have rust. Window trim around front windows has rust and one center piece on rear bumper.  The rest of the chrome is pretty decent.  
Interior is original and serviceable but has tears along the seams of rear seats. Headliner good. dash good. door panels good except drivers arm rest  

A great turn key classic to get in and enjoy. Good driver.

Test drives available. Out of state and international buyers welcome. I can connect you with a transporter if needed.
