Hi my name is Mark and I have a 55 olds 98 2dr hardtop. I have wanted one since I was a teenager, I am now in my 40s and have finally got one. I love it, big ole cruizer. Its all stock has 130,000 miles on it runs decent , stops good, just needs some tuning and interior work. I have been looking around on here and have picked up quite a bit from you guys and gals already. looking forward to hanging out here for awhile.Added a couple pix for your viewing pleasure.

 

Welcome to the club ... I mean forum . Nice looking cruiser; the color really pops. If you live in the Pacific Northwest I'm sure you'll notice there are some active CO (Classic Oldsmobile) members up there.

 

Welcome aboard

Citcapp is up thar sum whar

 

Nice hardtop. I have always liked the turquoise and white combo. What options do you have on your 98? PS Our Oldsmobile zone show is this Saturday at Country Village Bothell, WA. Send me a PM and I will tell you how to get there

 

55/98,
Love the look of those wire caps, good looking color combo also. I seriously considered that color combo befor settling on the red/white that I have now...Tedd

 

Absolutely gorgeous 98! Welcome to CO! Enjoy all the fun that goes on. Lots'a good folks up there in the NW, too, including my Grandson, and his parents, of course. He will probably get the '68 convertible (Big Red)! He is presently (at age 9) a member of OCA.

 

citcapp, It has power steering,brakes,seat and windows. I noticeed the olds show is saturday but I have to work so I can't make it.I will share a liitle more history, My Dad was an olds guy he had a 50,55,56,58,69 during my childhood. The 55 was the first car I ever steered when I was 6 years old.Thanks for the comments on the olds.

 

love the color as well, welcome to CO

 

sounds like your were born into an Olds family alright. I remember sitting on my dads lap and steering and well. Cops and anyone else would freak out seeing that these days.

PM me sometime, I'd love to see your car in person. Perhaps at one of the local cruise in's or at the triple X in Issaquah

 

welcome aboard

 

Looks sweet , enjoy , my wife and i are in our early 40's aswell we bought our 55 super 88 in california in february this year and shipped it here to sydney australia , finally arrived in may, we have been pleasantly surprised on how nice it drives and stops.
cheers chris

Nice looking car welcome.

 

Mark your car is gorgeous... and i love it especially because i have one too... lots of luck with your beauty....

 

Thanks Liz, I have been doing some cleaning and minor repairs this past month. Found out friday night that the wipers do not work, that was fun. Good thing I had some long boot laces in the car with me.

 

your welcome.. these things happen... i always pat my car on the dashboard and say..good girl when it doesn't give me trouble.. i think that works because she has never let me down.. you just have to show them alot of love.
