Oldsmobile 88 Rocket Emblem 1952 - License Plate - Vintage Emblem
1952 Oldsmobile 88 Rocket Emblem License Plate
The Rocket 88 also won the inaugural Carrera Panamericana in 1950. Not just fast, the 88 was reliable too. The first-gen Oldsmobile 88 remained in production until 1953. In 1952, Oldsmobile introduced a Super 88 model with a four-barrel carburetor version of the Rocket 88, rated at 160 horsepower. Even though the early 1950s put an end to the 88's success on the oval track, the nameplate soldiered on for a whopping five decades. The Rocket V8 engine survived in various forms until 1990 (even though the "Rocket" name disappeared from the air cleaner in 1975). Turbocharged in the early 1960s and redesigned in 1964, the Rocket V8 powered every Oldsmobile nameplate out there and eventually found its way into Cadillac, Buick, and Pontiac vehicles. Although it wasn't advertised as a performance car, the Oldsmobile is, without doubt, the car that pioneered the formula that led to the birth of the muscle car. It was a breakthrough design and it introduced one of the first post-WWII overhead valve V8 engines. It prompted other American carmakers to join NASCAR, also forcing them to up the ante in the V8 performance department. Which they did, giving us legends like the Ford Thunderbolt, Plymouth Barracuda, and the Dodge Charger.
