1956 Oldsmobile Rocket 882-Door "Holiday" Hardtop CoupeNO ROTNEW Chevy 350ci Crate motor and 350 Transmission (only 800 miles)Parts are readily available on island at your local auto store.RELIABLE: This car could easily be a daily driver.Newly upholstered seats in OstrichNew projector style black headlightsStereo system is glove box mounted: plays of USB and 3.5 jackRadiator core is out of a bus: Hot-tanked and custom fit:(You'll never have overheating problems with this Olds)Chrome Helmet air cleaner housingBillet fined aluminum rocker boxesHolley double pumper CarbChrome intake manifoldMild roller camManual BrakesManual SteeringCustom pin-striping1951 Buick Grill insertPainted Black with metallic Gold roofHand painted hubcaps w/ 4' bullet capsGrease Monkey custom carved shift knob1959 Cadillac bullet reverse light lensesNeeds headliner and door panelsNeeds new flat side glassNew fat white-wall tiresHooded and DeckedHat HolderPAINT: This is a "buddy" job, not show quality.INTERIOR: Needs work. Currently no headliner. The car will also need new door panels (not that hard if you don't mind back stapling fabric to some hardboard - We could do it for you should you be willing to pay us for the job)SUSPENSION: These are cut springs. Personally, I would buy new drop springs (about $200) so that the car wouldn't be so "slammed" - or go with bags. They are pretty easy to do on these assuming you know how to do them.NEEDS window wipersThe LOW NADA Value is $14,650 Flat (side window) glass rolls up and down fine, but is cracked. There are no cracks in the front or rear glass. FYI, yes, there is some surface rust on some parts, but no rust through on the body. It is a 58 year old car, and I'm not the original owner. Also, for those of you who wanted to see/hear it run, attached below is a video of the car. Had a couple of people ask about shipping to Mainland. From Honolulu to California via Pasha (they specialize in shipping cars) is $1,100 I will cover the cost of deliver to the shipyard in Honolulu, HI.
