For Sale: 1956 Oldsmobile Super 88 in Lithia Springs, Georgia

Together with Cadillac, Oldsmobile led the industry with the introduction of a pillarless "hardtop" coupe in 1949. Olds' version was called the "Holiday"; by the time this 1956 model was built, the Holiday coupe was the most popular 88 style. Recently released from a collection of an art and chandelier dealer with many fine automobiles, this 1956 Oldsmobile Super 88 Holiday Coupe has benefited from a professional frame-off restoration at some point in its past and comes with several impressive car show trophies.

Finished in an attractive two-tone color scheme of Citation Bronze and Alcan White, the car remains in excellent condition, however there are some flaws in the paint due to the age of the restoration.
