Oldsmobile 98

After some years in the desert, little of this Oldsmobile 98 is left.
Almost all paint has gone, leaving a crumpled, but still somehow beautiful body.
After the second world war, the 98, also called Series 90 in some years, was the flagship of the three Oldsmobile-models. It was powered by a 110bhp-V8-engine, that seems to be missing in the car above.
As usual for cars of that era, the 98 is quite rare nowadays.
So there are restored and well-kept examples, which still have the original chrome parts and wheel covers:
