Oldsmobile Ninety-Eight Regency Review
But look closer: Along the sides of the car there's a curve at the top of the fenders and just above the door handles. And there's another distinctive crease just above the plastic cladding that covers the bottom third of the vehicle.
The cladding, which presumably protects the body from road debris and the doors from dings, is grooved, and it looks like the chrome work on some pre-war Cadillacs. Front and rear bumpers are styled right into it. In the right light, it's a neat, stylish effect.
Up front, the grille is plastic, not metal. Thump it and it feels a little tinny. Headlights and taillights wrap smoothly around the fenders to compliment the graceful styling.
