I feel like the happiest guy on the planet right now. Found this on craigslist last week and picked it up yesterday. 1956 Oldsmobile Holiday Sedan: On the way home: Rocket in the sky: Old(s) and New: Need a bigger garage now: Happiest guy on the planet: I'd like to thank John (hrm2k) for all your help, and it was nice meeting you again yesterday.

cool score! looks like it needs some quarter panel work. but still cool--now wipe that silly grin off your face!
Sweet, you are now voted the designated driver for your club the bunch you hang with. That car will haul six people in total comfort and look fantastic doing it.
Damn sweet ride . My Dad had a 56 Olds Rocket 88 when I was about 10 years old . Loved that car and it was fast ! Anytime you buy something on C/L and can drive it home is a GREAT BUY ! So what are your plans ? Retro Jim
Thanks a lot guys! Well, that's why I got the hardtop. Once the windows are down, you don't need any A/C My wife loves the car! She already started polishing the chrome today. And I didn't even ask for it YES! Just want to make it a reliable daily! Update carb, brakes... Fix the quarter and maybe flake the roof?
It's got the original 324 in it. Love it. It needs some work though. But this thing is getting 15 MPGs so I'd rather have it in my daily I think. We'll see, I'm still not able to think straight...
Nice score...better watch out Mama will make a "Grocery Getter" out of that beauty, and leave you at home with the little ones.
