Former President Richard M. Nixon – Oldsmobile 98

Former American President Richard M. Nixon served as a member of the Republican Party from 1969 to 1974. He ended the Vietnam War and strained relationships with China and the Soviet Union during his five-year term. His leadership ended abruptly due to the infamous Watergate Scandal over attempts to cover up a break-in at Washington D.C.
Given the Oldsmobile 98’s simple features, he referred to it regularly to show his humble lifestyle amid his political allegations. During his infamous “Checker’s” speech, he used the car, among other modest assets, to win back the hearts of America.
