[tryby12]

efi is ok i like the snap of a carb. but i do agree gm centerport efi do kind of suck

[wantapgt]

Oh man this brings back memories. My parents owned this same car when I was a kid. They bought it new in early 1980's and I remember bits and pieces of the car when I saw this video.

[locomojo04]

Gotta love the old B-bodys I have a blue '85 Olds just like this one. They never die, just keep on going forever, with minimum maintenance too!!

[KLewisChef]

these were nice road trip cars

[kustom85delta88]

How much are you asking for it?

[mustang633NY]

@kustom85delta88 better question to ask on a 3+ year old video is how much DID it sell for

[kustom85delta88]

@mustang633NY sorry about that, didn't see when it was posted

[1979lincolncoupe]

back when oldsmobiles were prestigious respected cars and not generic budget sedans

[mrexecutive1]

thanks for the video, great memories

[deerhunter50521]

Beautifull but get that aftermarket third brake light off of it!

[j221282]

i have a 2 door 84 delta 88 with 74xxx miles on it!! i love it everything works but the speedonometer.. oh and in dallas u only see 4 doors with big o'l rims on it, rarely see a 2 door in mint condition like mines

[drh4683]

These early 80's full size GM cars are still seen on the road today. even the ones that are beat to hell are still going strong around here in Chicago area. I see lots of them. I hardly see any other makes this age on the road as a daily driver today. Just proves what a quality product GM put out.

[DerrickOil]

That's rings pretty true with me. Take the next 6 months when you are out driving and start looking for early '80's GM cars that are still on the road as daily drivers. Olds, Buick, Chevrolet, and Pontiac. Now at the same time try looking for early '80's Hondas, Toyotas, and Datsuns. Then report back to me.

[DerrickOil]

I was commenting on

drh4683's comment.

[mchane01]

@DerrickOil yeah you sholl right about that im from michigan and so many people got old skools despite the salt and snow. they are all in good condition why people try to play my 83 old delta 88. its in great condition and it can take me anywhere any newer car can. older is better, they were built to last.....

[furryone66]

thats one nice 88 your lucky you got a working AC my 77 has no AC

[wweproduction16]

i know this guy

[1995bisquick]

this prooves that gm was and still is better than ford we had an 83 grand marquis it was somewhat reliable but had a lot of bugs, most fords didnt last as long which might explain why I can never find a part for an old GM, but since most fords are in the junk yard theres plenty of them.

[regency98us]

As pretty as the 80s Ford and Merc Marquis were, you are right, not many at all around. Here in VA and when I lived in MD, the 77 - 90 Caprices, and GM wagons are really abundant. Even 2 weeks ago, I saw 7 late 80s Caprices still looking like new and of course... running! Im holding onto my late 70s Deltas and my 93 Roadmaster!

[1995bisquick]

I will have to say back then that fords had the upper hand in terms of technology Ford had the most advanceEFI, computers, and I think they pioneered it because most gm and dodge were still carbureted

[bradlee101]

@1995bisquick you cant knock the ccc q-jet carbs!!!!

[ga1999]

@1995bisquick That may be so, but look at how many of those Fords are on the road still compared to the full size GM's. Simplicity in many cases = longevity.

[roxy091988]

@1995bisquick thats becuz efi is fucking juck just like fords buddy

[AbusiveAdminPaul]

Beautiful

[coololds85]

wow clean Oldsmobile Delta 88

[j45007]

nice car.

[jojocats2]

Aggred 100%!

[jojocats2]

Too bad this guy has not signed in for 8 months or I would ask him.

[jojocats2]

Wish I knew the mileage, could anybody read the odometer?

[blazerlover25]

actually true miles are unknown sadly these oldsmobiles odometers are not a full arrangement like modern cars that has for example 100,000 well on these cars like most the 1 dont exist but it is a nice car bad on gas though

[jojocats2]

Yeah. They should have made these with 6-digit odometers.Because with good care they last well more than 100,000 miles. My 85 has 213,000 miles on it.

[jojocats2]

Sorry, I meant to hit reply and accidently hit spam. Sorry.

[wweproduction16]

his name is booby

[meatpuppet15]

actually i have a 84 olds delta 88 brougham 307 v8 and i get around i get around 20-25 mpg unless im stompin on the pedal and racing someone

[thunderbirdlver]

oh my gosh i want that car! simply amazing

[jojocats2]

Could you read the odmeter?

[thunderbirdlver]

i actually tried to see but i couldnt.

[jojocats2]

I thought it said like 69,000 but I couldnt see that well.

[robertoking]

i would love another 88 like this but you cant find any in milwaukee area any more (salty winters). $1000 and i will pick up anywhere down south.

[JesseDELTA88]

[jojocats2]

I agree! nice paint. good shape too. no rust.

[JesseDELTA88]

[starscream1985232]

I got offered 650 for mine. I got an 83 delta 88 with only 98k on her

[felleezy]

i got mine for 3000 58k on mines but i u got a great deal on yours 65o dollars that awesome

[randomrazr]

did people honestly need that much trunk spacE?

[regency98us]

yes they did, with a full size spare, enough room for vacation luggage, or transporting bicycles.. and being built on a frame you can TOW with them, unlike the crap they have today. try loading down a Honda with suitcases and a boat... LOL

[6ooboii]

yeah i got six 15's on my trunk!!!!!!

[regency98us]

I still held onto my 79 and 78 Delta 88s. I take one to car shows too, all original and those 350 Rockets are grrrreat!!!

[Cootabux]

The man id totally proud of his 88, and he should be. Had one almost exactly like it. Best car I ever owned. You can't kill it. I had a rod knocking in it and I went on to put 40k miles on it and was still running great when I sold it.

[bfgoodrik]

that why i still love it.

[bfgoodrik]

i should've paid you more for it, thats the car i will carry to my grave. thanks for the Olds.

[bfgoodrik]

i got a 81 delta just like it. that one is in showroom condition. those were the days when descent cars were made.

[68chevelleSS396]

my second favorite to the caprice

[nickj1101]

that bitch is CLEAN had same car an year but pillow seats all original nice i want

[buickman00]

Very very nice car... I want it !

[mrvince316]

How many miles. It looks like brand new! Hard to find them in this shape!

[Jac2Mac]

I noticed that when you started up this Oldsmobile without your seatbelt on, it made no sound at all. Did this 1983 Oldsmobile originally come with a chime or a buzzer?

[SpideyFan6010]

Neither there isn't anything to protect your safety aboard that lovable Boat, I know I own a 82.

[bfgoodrik]

the car is all steel, wear your seatbelt if you worry. it will crush anything that gets in the way

[kphj81]

Originally had a buzzer.Most GM had the buzzer untill about 1985-86ish Cadillac had the luxurious lol chime. And GM cars n trucks for that period had an annyoing higher pich buzzer.

[Jac2Mac]

Did the Brougham version of the 1983 Olds 88 come with a chime or a buzzer like this Olds used to have?

[kcro25]

It might have originally had a chime but since this is not a Brougham it most likely had the buzzer or the flute-like tone.

[Jac2Mac]

However, the regular 1982-83 Olds Delta 88 could be ordered with the chime as an optional package instead of the buzzer, right?

[bfgoodrik]

yes a bell chime, my 81 has a beep.

[Jac2Mac]

What Oldsmobile do you have?

[bfgoodrik]

1981 Delta 88 Royale 4 door. with 403ci 400th trans 4speed. all power acessories with moonroof

[pcdoctor2]

Those are great cars!
