For Sale: 1955 Oldsmobile Super 88 in Mesa, Arizona

Vehicle Description

Rolling off Oldsmobile's production line during their rocket ship era, this 1955 Oldsmobile Super 88 Holiday Coupe sports a two-tone Polar White over Turquoise paint combination. The hardtop body style flows cleanly from nose to tail, while 15" steel wheels wear wheel covers at all four corners. Chrome bumpers front and rear complement the grille and trim work throughout. BFG Silvertown radial tires measure 225/75R15 up front and 225/75R14 out back, wrapping those steel wheels with vintage-correct rubber.

Teal vinyl seating with cloth inserts creates a cohesive interior theme that flows across the bench seat configuration. The vinyl headliner matches the door panels and dashboard, all wrapped in coordinating tones. Original-style gauges peer through the steering wheel, while the column shifter keeps things period-correct. AM radio provides the soundtrack, and carpet covers the floor throughout the cabin. Power steering makes maneuvering effortless.

The 324 Rocket V8 engine breathes through a single Rochester 4-barrel carburetor mounted on the stock intake manifold. Power flows through a 4-speed Hydramatic automatic transmission to the Oldsmobile dropout-style rear end. Power drum brakes handle stopping duties at all four corners, while dual exhaust provides the proper V8 rumble. Independent front suspension with control arms and coil springs pairs with a solid rear axle and leaf springs.
