Doug, Your shot rekindles old desires. The family sedan I learned to drive on was a 1954 Olds 98. I remember seeing pictures of the your car in the paper, probably for the 1954 autoshow in the Chicago Tribune. The grill and tail-lights showed up on the 1956 Oldsmobiles, but never the two seat convertible. :-( Those were the days of the Rocket '88 engine, and Oldsmobiles were the sporty version of the Doctor's (or plant manager's) Buick. Regards, Bob S.
