Description:

1966 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight Delta 88

This is a ONE FAMILY vehicle. By that I mean it was ordered new by my father and has only been registered to he and I. This served as the family chariot from delivery to 1977. It remained in storage until 2002 when a complete body-off-frame restoration was completed. No detail was left unchecked...engine and tranny all rebuilt, body stripped to bare metal, frame sandblasted. All new interior (save door panels) and over $25K invested at the time. Since then it has seem very limited service and has been in climate-controlled storage most of the time. Engine is a 310HP Super Rocket V8, 425CID with 2-bbl carb. Tranny is super-smooth Turbo Hydra Matic 3-speed. Car is equipped with power steering and brakes, radio, clock and factory air. All items work although clock electric contact points must be cleaned on a regular to keep it running. AC compressor was replaced along with radiator 18 months ago. All tires are Cooper Trendsetter radials and have less than 3000 miles. Prior to restoration the car had NO rust whatsoever and spent most of its service years in KY and VA. This vehicle is a national prize winner (AACA) and I would not hesitate to drive it coast to coast. Stating the obvious, this is a rare jewel.
