New Member Hello from Illinois

Hello from Illinois I'm a new member and this is my first post. Down to just one Oldsmobile my 1954 Super 88 Holiday 324 4bbl. Other Oldsmobiles over the years have been '77 Delta 88 350 Corporate, 71 Cutlass Conv 350 4bbl, 67 Delta 88 Custom Coupe 425 4bbl, 66 Dynamic 88 425 2bbl, 65 F-85 6cyl 3 spd (on da tree). I'd like to share my all time favorite song lyric "Well you gassed her up, behind the wheel, arm around your sweet one in your Oldsmobile, Barrelin' down the Boulevard looking for the Heart of Saturday Night." (T. Waits)
Thanks,
Will

Grew up in the back seat of a 54 S88 Holiday Coupe - was already an antique then - now a 'vintage olds', but no longer in our family unfortunately...I'll never forget how silent that car was. Welcome.

You are going the wrong way!

Your Oldsmobile collection is supposed to grow...not shrink!

Thank you all for the warm welcome. I sometimes wonder, Is it possible, that we really did learn everything we need to know by the time we were out of Kindergarten.

Love the old pictures! I see someone had an Oldsmobile in their life when they were young.

This is my dad when he was 18, quite a player eh????
