Stk. 1694 1956 Oldsmobile Rocket 88
Make a date with a Rocket 88! That slogan made popular in the fifties was in reference and tribute to the Oldsmobile bearing the same name. The 88 model was created in 1949, and enjoyed a fifty year production run until 1999. Our 88 painted in factory correct code (40) Cirrus Blue and (63) Shantung Beige is a fine example of the classic two-door post styling with all its glowing chrome trim and aggressive good looks, especially with those 15" American Racing Torque-Thrust wheels and 225/70/R15 rubber. The massive chrome split front grille, a new styling feature for 1956…further underscores the no nonsense looks of this iconic body style. Raise up its massive hood to reveal the main event, a period correct (the original motor is available separately) recently rebuilt 324 cubic inch mill topped off with an aluminum Edelbrock intake, triple deuces and really tasty ribbed Offenhauser valve covers. Stylish and comfortable cloth and vinyl seating awaits to reward you inside along with an equally stylish dash board complete with oval speedometer cluster and foot operated parking brake; both new features for that year. Open the trunk and you will find a beautifully detailed and generously proportioned environment able to handle copious amounts of your favorite luggage for those long distance cruises. So are you ready to make a date with a Rocket 88? Call 800-650-1055 or visit our website at www.autobarnclassiccars.com for more information. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS"
