1977 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale review from North America
"Sleeper powerhouse"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Starter motor regularly until headers moved exhaust heat away.
Carpet in front wearing at edges for entry/egress.
Master cylinder just before I bought the car.
Minor rusting.
General comments?
Has a 2.41 rear end, goes like stink on the open road, won't quite take a Z28 6 speed light to light.
Did extremely well at burnout contest recently.
Big room for serious tunes.
2 door luxury land yacht.
