1956 Oldsmobile Holiday 324

Summary:

Daily driver for a 1956 Holiday

Faults:

Did not start.

Did not stop.

Barn kept.

One wire broke.

Leaks oil.

Rusty.

General Comments:

Picked up car from barn.

Drained all fluid, changed plugs, and called the old neighbors mechanic to tell me why the car would not start. One wire had been reversed. $300. Three week shot.

All brake lines replaced. $200.

Cleaned up. Then drove it. No cost.

Car stopped at Piggly Wiggly, would not start. Fixed a loose wire.

Oil leak is a PAIN. Next project is a rear main seal. The car is old.

Will need to fix the body some day.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
