The vehicle was sold to local Doctor in La Jolla San Diego, California. The vehicle was used sparingly for several years and added almost 2,000 miles. Under his ownership the car was meticulously cared for and we had the pleasure of personally detailing the vehicle e on several occasions for the numerous shows he would attend.

The history on the car has been transferred down to us by its original and second owner. The car was originally bought by Mrs. Clyde Mcdonald from Lively Auto in Brainerd Minnesota. She ordered the car form dealer stock and took delivery on July 9, 1956. She paid cash for the car and drove the car until 1971 when she sold it. Mr. Backman owned a Mobil service station and had done all the work and repair on the car since new. The car was sparingly used for a number of years until Mr. Backman’s death the car then sat in the garage till 2001 when a local magazine in Pequot Lakes, MN wrote an article on local Lakers Car Club, the gentleman who we bough the car from was the clubs secretary and editor. He headed up the club and was the main contact listed in the article so Mr. Backman contact him to help her sell the car. The following day the club editor went to inspect and eventually purchase the 1956 Oldsmobile. The car was in almost exactly the same shape as it is seen here. Mrs. Backman had lots of documents for the car and each have followed the car since. The was bought that day and picked up in with the week after sitting for several years all the car needed was fresh fluids and a new battery, everything checked out and the car drove home without issue. At that time the brakes were serviced and was the transmission. Shortly before we purchased the car it had undergone one-repaint to the Salmon color only and some mechanicals including water pump, fuel pump, oil sending unit and a brand new set of radial tires. Several years ago the clubs editor had been enjoying the car at numerous cruise nights as well as many driving events with the club. Unfortunately his father had passed away and due to increasing medical bills the car had to be sold.
