Description
1956 Oldsmobile 88 Holiday Hardtop – Frame-Off Restoration, 35 Miles
Presented here is a stunning 1956 Oldsmobile 88 Holiday 2-Door Hardtop, finished in an elegant cream and bronze two-tone exterior over a tan interior. Carrying a clean Georgia title and showing only 35 miles since restoration, this car is as close as you will find to stepping back into a showroom in 1956.
The VIN (568M62652) confirms this example as a true Holiday Hardtop, built at Oldsmobile’s Lansing, Michigan plant. Power comes from the legendary 324ci “Rocket” V8, paired with the desirable Jetaway Hydra-Matic transmission, delivering smooth and confident cruising.
This Olds is loaded with period options that highlight its premium character, including power steering, power brakes, and a signal-seeking Wonder Bar radio. The two-tone paintwork is accented by sweeping chrome trim, while the tan cabin offers a refined, period-correct look that perfectly complements the exterior.
A recipient of a full frame-off restoration, this Oldsmobile presents with show-quality paint, gleaming brightwork, and a meticulously restored interior. Every detail reflects careful craftsmanship, and the 35 miles shown on the odometer represent only post-restoration test and delivery mileage.
