55 Olds

Hi Chris: Yes, thanks on that offering. I have replied to him but no response as yet. Keep me in mind if you hear of any 2 door hardtop for sale.
Thanks, Mike

Sounds like he is in BFE, may have to go to town to use phone. May be why he hasn't sold it, good luck in your search.

BFE Too funny, I think I've been there once or twice! The owner may be responding via dog sled. I looked it up on Google Earth and it is really up there. Shortest route to get there is probably thru the UP. It looks like a reasonable car for a street rod I have in mind.

Now that 2 of you understand "BFE," care to share it with us who haven't a clue?

Here's a project car located in Southwestern Oregon. But it does sound like he's done a lot of work to it already. John

55 Oldmobile 88 2 door hard top, no rust or rot, ready for paint. Bumpers need to be re-chromed....spent $4000 on engine rebuild, all glass is good, driver quality interior. Have Oregon title in my name, will sell for $9500......value when finished $35,000-$45,000.
