1984 Oldsmobile Delta 88 royal review from North America
"Power boat!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Chokes a little sticky refuses to start in cold weather. some surface rust but that comes off with a sander. power steering pump pulley warped within the first four hours of ownership still can't find a replacement. the stereo didnt work when I bought it so i'm in the proses of replacing it.
General comments?
I bought the car off of a old guy who had been restoring oldsmobile's for 40 years he finished the interior then sold it. the 307 puts out power like nothing, floor the gas and your burning those tires! handles like a boat.
