1955 Oldsmobile Super 88 Convertible Welly 1:24











From Wikipedia:
In the 1955 model year, new sales records were achieved for the U.S. auto industry and Oldsmobile that would endure for a decade. Wide public acceptance of the division’s well-appointed “Go Ahead” styled models, which were fortified with an even more powerful 324-cu.in. overhead-valve Rocket V-8, propelled production to 583,179 cars being built.
Oldsmobile offered the 88 and Super 88 series on a 122-inch wheelbase and the Ninety-Eight on a 126-inch wheelbase. The entry-level 88 line featured a four-door sedan, two-door sedan or two-door Holiday coupe (hardtop). A 324-cu.in. two-barrel engine and three-speed manual transmission were standard with the four-barrel engine optional.

Action #22 Red Byron 1949 Overseas Motors Oldsmobile NASCAR NAPA 1:24 Diecast










RED BYRON 1949 OVERSEAS MOTORS OLDSMOBILE 1/24 ACTION
This is the #22 car, Overseas Motors sponsored 1949 Oldsmobile raced by Red Byron. This car was produced by Action Racing Collectables in 1998 as one of a series of 6 cars to celebrate NASCAR's 50th anniversary. These were sold only through NAPA Auto Parts stores. It features an opening hood and trunk, chrome grill and bumpers and has a detailed engine.
Oldsmobile had introduced the 88 badge in 1949. It was named to complement the already-existing 76 and 98, replacing the straight -8 engined 78. The new car used the same new Futuramic B-body platform, now pairing it with the new 303 cu in (5.0 L) Rocket V8 engine, producing 135 horsepower (101 kW). With a relatively small light body and large, powerful engine, it was thought of as the first 'muscle car'. The Rocket 88 also gained a wide reputation as the one to beat on the track too, particularly in NASCAR circles, where it had numerous successes. Post World War II, there was a demand for new cars and the 88 appealed to many young ex-military motorists who were familiar with driving powerful vehicles in their professional life. The 88 therefore enjoyed a great success, even inspiring a popular 1950s slogan, "Make a Date with a Rocket 88", and also a song, "Rocket 88".
