By the side of the road
Happened across this when visiting Santa Monica, California last weekend. Doing apparently daily-driver service, it was parked on a side street right along with all the late model Lincolns and Mercedes. It's a '56 Olds, although all identifying markings and most of the trim has been removed. A little weird. But it looks to be in excellent shape.
There's a thread here where someone is asking about using a '68 Delta 88 as a daily driver and what's involved in using a car that old in that way. Here's an owner that certainly knows the answer to that question.

Seems to be in the process of restoration. Single exhaust. Back up lights delete. It's either a Jetaway in park or a manual in reverse. It's not a 98. Either a Super 88 or a base 88. As mentioned, badges are missing. Base 88 didn't have a trunk badge, but both 88 and Super 88 had fender badges. 12-16 mpg premium gas.....

Not a bad looking ride, especially for a daily driver... Curious as to the age of the driver... It would be good to see some younger drivers out and about with these older vehicles on a daily basis, it will help keep the interest alive for a long time to come...
