"It is the greatest car ever built"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Starter replaced in 2000.

Water pump in 2000.

Radio went.

Windshield leaks.

Driver's seat only goes forward and back.

Passenger side rear window only opens from the driver's controls.

Blew the speakers in it, but other than that it's the greatest thing in the world.

General comments?

Old Blue is the greatest car there is, it rides like a couch. You can really put 6 large people in there comfortably. It's the greatest, I love it. It may drink gas, but oh well, I've got a job.

I have to say that I as well own an "85" Delta 88. Betsy is the best thing that has happened to me in a while even though she has a few problems. Can I really blame her, though? She has had a total of three owners (that I know of) that didn't take very good care of her, and she still runs better than most of my friends cars.

I had one, too. It was a 4-door burgundy, stripped-down model. Power door locks was about it.

I drove it for 18 months, put 38,000 miles on her, and she never complained. I even got 22 mpg on one trip. But I made the mistake of letting her go.

Ultra-smooth ride, smooth acceleration, and a good snow car, too. Someday I may find another one if I'm lucky.
