Hi everyone. Just inherited a 1957 Oldsmobile Super 88, 371 J2 Tri-Power, 1955 Hydramatic Slant Pan Transmission. Replacing brakes now, trans needs front and rear seals. Hope to be driving it soon!

Nice. When I was in my late twenties I used to care for this basically thrown to the side lady. She had a 50 Olds two door. 36 wooden wheel Plymouth. 58 Olds with a factory J-2 setup. Once she was gone the wolves came in. Sucked. I have pictures somewhere.
Love your car. Nice score.
