1955 Oldsmobile 98 Holiday 4D HT (SOLD)

I have a 1955 Oldsmobile 98 Holiday four door hard top for sale. It needs complete restoration. Car has all its parts intact and all trim accounted for. Great summer project. I want $1,900 cash for it. Car runs but will start smoking after a while. Brakes work but transmission will not shift out of first gear. I was told it’s probably a servo. Car will go into all gears but won’t up shift while driving. Body does have rust in the front fenders rear dog legs and driver side front pan. I noticed a small spot in the trunk as well. Body will need complete restoration. Car can be yard driven and will make it on a trailer with no problem. I wanted to offer it up to someone that might actually restore it to its former glory. It’s one sharp looking car and could be a real looker. It has black and white interior so it’s a great color combination. The car is worth the asking price as parts alone so you can’t go wrong. It has power brakes, power steering, power windows and power seat. This is a no A/C car. Pictures are below. Please email me if you are seriously interested in or call the number below. This car is located in Northern Kentucky right outside of Cincinnati.

I updated this post with some better pictures. Car is still for sale and is well worth restoring! Price is negotiable.

You are selling an Oldsmobile and keeping a Toyota Supra! BLASPHEMOUS!

Just kidding. I always thought the early Supras were herculian. If I bought a Toyota that is what I would buy.

I just added some more recent photos of the car. She’s still for sale and is well worth restoring. I hate to see her just sitting around.

Two doors are nice but 4 are better; besides everyone wants the 2 door cars. Be original and get a 4 door. Not to mention this is the first year Oldsmobile made the 4 door hard top so it’s not just another 4 door car.
