  1. Bob, That is a great project for someone. It looks complete and the lack of rust is a big benefit for the next person. My Suburban sold and will be going to the new owner next week. I saw on the dash you don't have the body tag. Is there one on the passenger side door rail? I'm finding it appears there was multiple places. Some had them and others may have not. There are about 20 that I've tracked out of 100 or so built. I have recently heard maybe 500 were built, but I haven't seen the reference yet.
  2. Truck is still available - looking for reasonable offers.
  3. Very Rare 1936 Chevrolet Suburban Carryall. 1 of approximately 100 made and about 20 remaining. This is the 2nd year they were made with approximately 75 made in 1935. I have collected and tracked 1936 Suburbans for the last 30 years and these rarely come up for sale. This one is largely complete including original engine. I have both doors and the upper and lower tailgate section. The tailgate sections are unique to the Suburban and very hard to find. The wood framing is rotted will need to be redone. The front drivers seat, passenger folding seat and 2nd row seat are present. Missing is the 3rd row seat frame and upper seat springs. I have the front bumper that will go with the truck. This will require a full restoration, but is worthy as restored examples go for over $100,000. Why I'm selling - I have 3 other projects that I would like to complete and I just won't get to this in time and would like to see this go to a caretaker who can restore it properly. This is a rare vehicle worth doing well. Ebay Listing: https://www.ebay.com/itm/195877016844 I'm the owner. More pictures on Ebay. Sold with bill of sale only and is available for inspection. I'm located in Saratoga Springs, NY 12866.

  5. Not exactly sure - looks like maybe buick, but I can't figure it out. Overall width is about 4 1/2". Thanks in advance.
  6. Agreed - looks like maybe for 1954 Hudson Hornet. Any other ideas?
  7. Trying to figure this out. Thought it may be Chevrolet, but not sure. Any ideas?
  8. The more I think of it - the chrome upper door garnish mouldings may be a GM exec car or something. Anyone able to provide any addl insight to the tag codes?
  9. I have also posted additional photos on a FB post as Ebay limits the # of photos to 24. You can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/54to56Olds/permalink/3713740895521391/?sale_post_id=3713740895521391 Thanks, Shawn
  10. Re chrome upper armrests: On the door tops the arm rest inner moulding is chrome - all others I've seen are painted. Someone more knowledgeable than I would know if that was an accessory or just other starfire owners not wanting to spend the big $ to get them chromed. See pic below.
  11. So when I bought the car, it didn't have the block or the trans. The engine accessories, carb, intake and a few pistons are in the back seat. I think it was bought this way based on what I know about whom I purchased it from. It has power everything and is a great car for the Oldsmobile enthusiast. The 324 and trans isn't hard to find - a lot of guys are dropping in LS's into their resto-rods and I was planning on picking up another 55 324. Numbers matching doesn't mean much for these, but I'm more of a purist when it comes to the engine/trans combination. I've had a lot of interest and one very good offer. I've decided to let the listing run for a week and then evaluate. Thanks for your interest, Shawn
  12. https://www.ebay.com/itm/394470700442 1955 Oldsmobile Starfire 98 Convertible - solid project car This is an excellent project car - super solid floors, trunk and sheet metal and includes the convertible top irons. I think this is a western car based on the lack of rust - does not include the complete engine, transmission or front suspension center link. Car is rolling, but manually need to steer the wheels as steering column isn't hooked up. Driveshaft is in the trunk. Very attractive color combination - S41-43 with Panama Blue (Opal) and Frost Blue. Has old seat covers with what appears to be some of the original leather interior under the seat covers. From the Body Tag: Style #: 55-3067DX Body No: L 70 Trim: 358 Paint: S41-43 I think this is a very special Starfire - it appears to be loaded with accessories and includes chrome door upper arm rests, which I have never seen on a Starfire before. The color combination and the solid condition was the reason for buying it, but I have enough projects now and I've decided to let this go to a person who can lovingly restore it. Per pictures, many of the engine accessories/parts/heads, etc. are in the front and rear seat, but no engine block/pistons, etc. There is an intake, but I haven't found a carb. This is the one to restore, as it is largely complete, a great color combination and not rusted. I'll be adding a few pictures of the underside tomorrow. Sold with bill of sale only - No title.
