Our families 81 Delta 88 was the best car we ever owned, even better than our 75 Cutlass, cemented my love for Oldsmobile and their tough V8. Mom and Dad paid $500 in the early 90's, not quite as nice outside but a gem for $500. I found a stack of receipt's in the glove box from when the lady bought it in 82. No major work but tons oil changes and tune-ups. It had an Olds 307/TH250C, I got over 400,000 km on that drive train before the timing chain skipped. I should have put another chain in, the motor used a liter in 8000 km. Great riding and well built cars. What transmission? I am assuming the Olds 307 V8 for a motor.
This car does not have overdrive but I do have three 2004r that need to be rebuilt so one day it could have one in it
Im more intrigued you have a wife who goes for this and is so happy about it. Thats the real win here!
Nice clean car

mine has always kinda rolled her eyes whenever I talked about dragging another home, or getting parts for the ones I already had. now she just looks at me and shrugs and says as long as my part of the bills are paid, and that I actually do something with said cars....
