Hi Tim Holder, Serving that 55 Chevy right up, and here is the link. Enjoy! Lou kzread.info/dash/bejne/n2xo08qIlpqWcbg.html

This is a very scrumptious automobile. I've always thought that the styling of the '54 and '55 Oldsmobiles was unique and their use of color was very eye catching. Air conditioning was very rare in '55, especially on convertibles and that very large Frigidaire compressor was used on the earliest units. Frank is a very knowledgeable owner and and I enjoy hearing his comments. Great job as always Lou and keep up the good work!

Truly amazing, just try to find ANY other ‘55 car that has power steering, power seat, power windows and A/C. These were all miracle optiona back then, just introduced a few years earlier. It even has the automatic headlight dimmer and power antenna. (At least I noticed a switch under the dash) A fully loaded car, imagine the attention this must have gotten back then.

The 4 seat Thunderbird and the Lincolns had air conditioning units built in to the dash starting in 58. The full sized Ford and Mercurys didn't offer the integrated A/C units until 1965. Interestingly enough the Ford Falcon was the first compact built in the US to have integrated air in 66. The Rambler American, Plymouth Valiants, Dodge Darts and Chevy IOS were still being mounted under the dash. Not sure about Corvair.

Hello alton wren, Happy to read this car has a special place in your heart :-) You're welcome, Lou

I had one as a kid. Yes a 98 Starfire. It was 1965. Bought it from the original owner for $100.00. Although the paint was dead the car was rust & dent free. Not even any door dings. Besides not maintaining the paint I suspect we were behind on the oil changes as my 19 year old driving style quickly broke a skirt off one of the pistons. A rebuilt short block and a fresh coat of blue paint gave this kid a special car to drive till I was drafted in 1966. I didn't go home right after I got out of the army so mom had my rust free, dent free, Starfire, with a rebuild short block, and new paint, hauled off to the dump. I still have the title somewhere. Wish I could post a picture.

Hi, Lou! It was a bit of a surprise for me to see this one in Frank's collection. I know he concentrates mostly on Mopars and I didn't think he even had any GM vehicles. But spectacular is definitely the word for this Oldsmobile, and Lansing really did it right in 1955, especially with the Starfire 98 in those "flying colors"! Indeed, this was Oldsmobile's best year of the decade in terms of sales, and they weren't even making station wagons at the time (from 1951 to 1956), which I've always wondered why. Yes, sir, Frank sure has come a long way from failing that driver's test! I'm so grateful he was able to let us in on this one, an outstanding car from an outstanding year!

1955 was the first year Olds to have A/C outlets in the dash. The 1954s had a blower unit in the trunk and outlets in the headliner vented from the rear, which wouldn't be possible in a convertible. Also the 98 was a larger car than the 88 and Super 88. Ten inches longer, and the parking brake warning light and courtesy lights you pointed out were standard on a 98.

Starfire was used on 98 convertibles in 1954-1956, but not on 88s. It came from the Starfire show car from the GM Motorama in 1953, named for the Lockheed F-94 Starfire jet. Then in 1957 the entire 98 line was called Starfire 98 and the name was dropped for 1958. It came back a few more times for special models like the 1962-66 Starfire two-door hardtop.

The air conditioning system in the 1954 Oldsmobile was an entirely different system. It had the refrigeration unit in the trunk and air vents in the headliner. Olds was probably the first car to move the A/C to the front and put the vents in the dash for the 1955 model year. For sure Cadillac still had the rear A/C up until they switched to front for the 1957 model year. 1955 Buick also had a rear A/C unit. GM often used Oldsmobile as their guinea pig on new technology. In 1955 A/C on an Oldsmobile was still a rarity, even moreso on a convertible.

My dad and his brother had a '55 Olds 88 Super Convertible with three on the tree when they were in high school and college. I vaguely remember riding in it when I was very young, but my grandfather made them sell it since they didn't have storage for it or money to do anything with it and it was beginning to go downhill. To this day they wish they'd kept it, since dad ended up having a different car restored that was in much worse shape and not nearly as valuable.
