1956 Oldsmobile Super 88

When the 1956 Oldsmobile Super 88 rolled out onto Michigan Avenue from the Lansing assembly plant, it enjoyed a well-earned reputation as the hottest “family” car in the country. Its Rocket V-8 boasted 324 CI and 230 HP with a strong 340 lb-ft of torque on hand, thanks to its 9.25:1 compression, Rochester Quadra-Jet 4-barrel carburetor, advanced hydraulic-lifter cam and dual exhaust.
