Sweet. I love 55-57 Oldsmobile's. Looks like a great starting point. Awesome. Keep us updated. Welcome to Classic Oldsmobile.

Great looking car!

Are there many 55 Olds in Sweden?!?

JenR8r88

Thanks, I definitely will be posting the progress here. Parts are arriving by the end of the week, and hitting the "junk yard" on Monday

Hey Jen,
There are more 1955 - 1956 Oldsmobiles, and ESPECIALLY 1957 - 1958 OLDSMOBILE s in Sweden now, then there are in the United States !!! Those OLDSMOBILE s are very desirable in Sweden.....
My parts are always going there.....

Google the " Power Meet " the first weekend of July --- videos through the years abound..... 12,000 to 14,000 American cars... absolutely incredible !!! Take a peek.....

Yours, Craig.....

That's sad to know, we should still have more 55 -57 oldsmobiles here but o get it. It just makes my 57 stand out that much more.

Jen, according to your profile you are in Phoenix.
Just curious why you're asking about Sweden?
I used to belong to a car club in Phoenix and I still have a lot of friends there.
There are some great places to find parts in that area.
Let me know if I can help you find any parts.

Hi Wally, my mention of Sweden was in response to a comment by another poster. I am located in Phoenix; born and raised.
I recently joined the AZ Oldsmobile Club - just attended their 35th annual Car Show 2 weeks ago.
I welcome any assistance in finding parts in Phoenix! Tomorrow morning I'm hitting the Glendale classic car swap meet and Monday hitting the DVAP "boneyard" n Casa Grande Monday morning.

DVAP is a great spot but It may take you more than a day to visit there.
I belong to the Minnesota Olds Club and you may want to consider joining the Oldsmobile Club of America.
Enjoy DVAP!

Fusick is also a good source for parts

JenR8r88

Thanks Wally! I'll look into the OCofA! I've never been to boneyard like DVAP; I'm excited to go. May need to plan a few more days off to see it all 😁

JenR8r88

I placed a HUGE order from Fusick last week!!! It's a dangerous place for me 😂 so many good things that I really don't need - at least not at this moment in time!

griffey57

I'm glad we have them for reproduction parts

JenR8r88

Absolutely!
