1956 was a great year for cars. This Oldsmobile 88 is a shining example of what 50s luxury was all about. This big comfortable cruiser floats down the road soaking up bumps and grabbing attention everywhere you take it. The 324 CID Rocket V8 engine has plenty of power and a nice exhaust note. The paint scheme is timeless and fits this 2-door hardtop very well. Dark brown metallic paint pops over the cream and sparkles in the sunlight. These cars are known for their endless chrome and beautiful body lines. But, thats certainly not where the appeal stops. The Rocket V8 engine is rated at 230 horsepower and a staggering 340 lb. ft. of torque! That is more than enough to get this full-size cruiser up and going. That power is routed through Hydra-matic Super Drive 4-speed automatic transmission that shifts quick and smooth. An aluminum radiator has been installed to help keep the big V8 cool in the summer months.
