Anyone know the model and year of this specimen?

This is what they took from us.*

*I am referring, of course, to the decommissioned train station where this photo was taken. It's a shame that even with the embarrassing state of public transit in this country, we can't even have private automobiles with the kind of panache still barely demonstrated by this Oldsmobile.

Looks like a 1959 Oldsmobile 98:

The key is the triple headlights. '58 and '60 were doubles, not triples like that.

That's her! Hopefully some kind of restoration is in its future.
