When I turned 16 (1964) my dad had a beautiful 1956 Oldsmobile Starfire 98 convertible that was automatic with an “S” (super) gear for passing cars! “What a Cruisemobile” !!!
Oldsmobiles rocked.
The Cutless 442 was a beast, but as I said earlier regarding Pontiacs, even the sedans had serious Big Balls on the road.
And the ride was beautiful, like floating...
And all that was at a price that Pop could afford and still keep a roof over your head, the lights on, and food in your belly.
Somebody f*cked all that up along the way...
Got a 92 Bonneville SE sitting in the drive now, waiting for overhaul. Sweet old girl, but she likes money... Lord, does she like money :^)...
