1957 Oldsmobile Super 88 Apparel and Accessories by Legend Lines
The 'Golden Rocket' designation was adopted by Oldsmobile for its 1957 88 and Super 88 models. The 'Golden Rocker' name was a bit of a misnomer as the Oldsmobile division was celebrating its 60th anniversary that year. In January of 1957, Oldsmobile released the J-2 package as an option for public sale. Body styles on the super 88 included a 2- and 4-door Holiday Hardtop, station wagon, convertible coupe, and a 2- and 4-door sedan. Prices ranged from $2,690 to $3,220. The most popular body style was the sedan which accounted for 42,696 sales while the 4-door Holiday Hardtop was also popular with 39,162 sales. The 2-door sedan found just 2,983 willing buyers and the convertible coupe had 7,128 sales. The station wagon was a new entry to the lineup for 1957 and had 8,981 sales. Standard equipment on the Super 88 included exposed chrome roof bows, side interior courtesy lights, bumper guards, turn signals, rubber floor mats, sun visors, armrests, 8.50 x 14-inch tires, and front fender chrome script. Various colored cloth and leather upholstery options were offered.
