General comments?
I have a 1970 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Custom 4 door.
My car runs a 455 cubic inch. 2 barrel. The car has a factory extra
that cost about a $1000.00. The windows don't have center bars, like a convertible windows. Most I heard, people cut the top off and made those convertibles. Family owned since 1970 All the numbers match, but the transmission. The interior is in very great condition, original seats, very Black about 5 unravaling areas, the dash is a dream, new carpet and ceiling. I was offerd $8000.00 for the car. I would not like to sale it, but I need the money the goto Alaska. I know I will never find another car like this one in my life, but I may see it in a car show. If someone buys the car to take the engine, I will not sale it to them. I love my car, and I'll miss her...
