Following up on its remarkable postwar success story, including the 1949 introduction of the powerful overhead-valve "Rocket" V-8 engine, Oldsmobile models of the 1950s featured leading-edge styling cues previewed by the glamorous Fiesta and Starfire GM Motorama concept cars of 1953. For 1954, a major restyling included fashionable wraparound windshield and rear-window treatments, followed by the debut of the Holiday 2- and 4-door pillarless hardtop models in 1955. The rapidly developing "Rocket" V-8 engine now displaced 324 cubic inches and delivered 240 horsepower for the Super 88 and top-shelf Series 98 models, with GM's excellent Hydra-Matic 4-speed automatic transmission standard by 1956.

Representing Oldsmobile's top-of-the-line models for 1956, this 98 Deluxe Holiday Sedan features a 240-horsepower, 324 cubic-inch V-8 engine, paired with the new-for-1956 Jetaway Hydra-Matic 4-speed automatic transmission. Purchased by the current owner, a highly knowledgeable collector, this 1956 Oldsmobile Series 98 Deluxe Holiday Sedan is a very well-restored and preserved example of Oldsmobile's upscale performers of the mid-1950s, featuring the handsome and modernistic Holiday Hardtop sedan body style.

Befitting its high-end status, this 1956 Oldsmobile Super 98 Holiday Hardtop features an eye-catching two-tone paint finish and a two-tone interior with leather upholstery. Features, options, and passenger amenities include working factory air conditioning and power-assisted brakes and steering, power windows, and a power-adjustable front seat. The newly available Hydra-Matic 4-speed automatic transmission and Autronic Eye automatic headlamp dimmer add to the Space Age-influenced, forward-thinking equipment and presence of this classic Oldsmobile.

Fully inspected and detailed by The Last Detail, this uncommon and advanced 1950s Oldsmobile stands as yet another well-curated American classic automobile we are thrilled to offer.

As-Is:

 

 

The Last Detail has described the above-mentioned vehicle to the best of our ability, however, as with all pre-owned automobiles, the condition is subjective, and recommend that the buyer inspect and test drive the vehicle before finalizing their purchase. The Last Detail shall and will make every reasonable effort to disclose any known defects associated with the vehicle at the buyer’s request prior to close of sale. No allowances or set aside will be made on account of any incorrectness, imperfection, defect or damage. Any descriptions or representations are for identification purposes only and are not to be construed as a warranty of any type. It is the responsibility of the buyer to have thoroughly inspected the vehicle, and to have satisfied himself or herself as to the condition and value and to bid based upon that judgement solely. It is the sole responsibility of the buyer to verify the existence of options, accessories and the vehicle condition before time of sale. Any and all differences must be addressed prior to the time of sale. The Last Detail assumes no responsibility for any repairs regardless of any oral statements about the vehicle. Despite our best efforts to verify a vehicle’s mechanical condition, we are not able to warranty a manufacturer’s workmanship or a previous owner’s diligence in care of said vehicle. There are no mechanical guarantees, expressed or implied. We will not be responsible for buyer’s remorse or issues to said vehicle once it has left our premises. We are being realistic; most of the cars we sell are vintage and by their very nature will need TLC and some degree of attention sooner or later. Therefore, all vehicles are sold “AS IS”. However, extended warranty options are available on most vehicles. Please inquire if you are interested.

Vintage cars in excess of 10 years of age, in most US states, mileage may be recorded as “exempt”. The Last Detail makes no warranties as to the accuracy of the mileage indicated or shown and accepts no responsibility for any discrepancy with independent reports such as CarFax, Autocheck, etc. Unless the vehicle is advertised as an original mileage car, do not assume that the mileage/odometer reading is the actual mileage. It is simply what the odometer is reading at the time pictures are taken. MILEAGE IS NOT ACTUAL UNLESS STATED SO IN THE DESCRIPTION! Vehicles are test driven and mileage may vary at time of sale.
