1952 Olds 98 new owner!

Hey-

just purchased a 1952 Olds 98 from my uncle as we are hoping to keep this car in the family. After surfing this site for the last few weeks, it's clear I have a ton to learn from you all!

I'm in Southern California, so if anyone has info on a good mechanic as I have some electrical and gas line issues, let me know!......

Thanks
Bill

You have a great looking '52, Bill. It looks to be very original. I also inherited a car that has been in my family for a long time. Amazing how little it once interested me and how fascinated I am with it now. I am really enjoying this forum and learning about these beautiful automobiles. I know you will too!

I like! Can you imagine following that down the road in 1952?

Best advice I can give off the bat is to invest in a factory 1952 Olds Chassis Service Manual. It will prove invaluable to you and to anyone you have service the car.
