1971 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Town Sedan review from North America
"A classic, timeless beauty from a bygone era"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake master cylinder and right front slave cylinder at about 93,000.
General comments?
Very comfortable, fun to drive and elegant looking. The car turns heads and gets lots of thumbs up. The 350 has tons of power and gas mileage is much better than the 455 that many models came with. I can fix almost everything that has gone wrong so far, and those have been very minor problems for a car this old.
