Not long ago I did a 1956 Oldsmobile 98 four door hardtop using the roof off a GFCC 1956 Buick Roadmaster 4dr hardtop.  That left me with a roofless Buick which became a convertible.

@kenspear 

I also did not know Conquest did a 1955 Oldsmobile. I wish this would be reissued.

@stanton-lyman  I thought that Esval should consider expanding their 1955 Oldsmobile range to include an 88 four door hardtop or be really different and do a sedan.  They did do three different 1956 Chevrolets, the 2 and 4 door wagons and the sedan delivery.   I'm no model manufacturer but is seems to me making multiple models of the same year gives some economies of scale with things like wheels,  bumpers, grills, base plates, etc.
