1975 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale

1975 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight Description

I AM SELLING MY BEAUTIFUL 1975 DELTA 88 ROYAL. I WANT TO START OFF BY SAYING I AM THE 2nd DOCUMENTED OWNER OF THIS BEAUTIFUL CLASSIC SINCE 1975!! THIS CAR WAS DELIVERED ON 3-18-1975 WITH ONLY 8 MILES ON IT. THE CAR ONLY HAS AROUND 79,XXX ORIGINAL MILES, AND IT SHOWS BY THE EXCELLENT CONDITION THIS CAR IS IN. THE EXTERIOR IS A VERY RARE AND UNIQUE FACTORY DOVE GRAY WITH WHITE/MAROON INTERIOR. THIS IS THE 1st AND THE ONLY DOVE GRAY 1975 DELTA 88 ROYALE THAT I'VE EVER SEEN! YOU HAVE TO ASK YOURSELF HAVE I EVER SEEN ONE THIS COLOR, AND HOW MANY? THE ANSWER IS PROBABLY NEVER. THAT'S LETTING YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE GETTING A SPECIAL CAR THAT IS AS RARE AS IT IS BEAUTIFUL. THE ORIGINAL MSRP OF THIS CAR WAS $5,359.30. THE FINAL MSRP AFTER THE OPTIONS WERE ADDED WAS $7,550.50. THAT'S NEARLY $2,200 WORTH OF OPTIONS. THAT WAS A TON OF MONEY IN OPTIONS BACK IN 1975 THAT THE ORIGINAL CUSTOMER JUST HAD TO HAVE. I ALSO HAVE ALOT OF THE ORIGINAL PAPERWORK SUCH AS: OWNER'S MANUAL, WARRANTY FORMS, FACTORY BROCHURES, ORIGINAL BUILD SHEET ETC.THE VERY FEW TIMES, AND I MEAN "FEW TIMES" THAT I'VE TAKEN THIS CAR OUT ON SUNDAYS PEOPLE CAN'T BELIEVE HOW CLEAN IT IS, AND THEY ALWAYS COMPLIMENT THE DOVE GRAY COLOR AS BEING BEAUTIFUL. THE ORIGINAL OWNER TREATED THIS CAR LIKE IT WAS ONE OF HIS KIDS, AND I'M JUST PROUD I WAS ABLE TO PURCHASE FROM A REAL CAR GUY THAT LOVE THESE OLD TIME MACHINES AS MUCH AS I DO. THEY DEFINETLY DON'T MAKE EM LIKE THIS ANYMORE!!
THE INTERIOR IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE WITH VERY SLIGHT BLEMISHES HERE AND THERE, BUT DEFINITELY NO STAINS OR RIPS IN THE SEATS OR CARPET. EVERY PIECE OF INTERIOR FROM 1975 IS PRESENT IN THIS CAR WITH NOTHING MISSING MEANING YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY THIS CAR AND THEN SPEND MONTHS SEARCHING FOR THOSE LITTLE INTERIOR PIECES THAT ARE IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND. LUCKILY FOR YOU THIS CAR HAS ALL THE LITTLE PIECES! THE WOOD GRAIN TRIM IS BEAUTIFUL WITH NO CRACKS AS WELL AS THE DASH WHICH IS ALSO CRACK/FADE FREE. EVEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS ALMOST FLAWLESS. THIS CAR IS ALSO EQUIPPED WITH THE FACTORY 8 TRACK PLAYER THAT HAS STILL BEEN WORKING SINCE 1975!! I ALSO WILL THROW IN A WHOLE GLOVE BOX FULL OF 8 TRACKS IN WITH THE DEAL. ALL INTERIOR LIGHTS IN THE DOORS, DASH, AND EVEN THE LIGHTS IN THE SUN VISOR ALL WORK. THIS CAR ALSO FEATURES POWER WINDOWS, SEATS, AND DOOR LOCKS. GUESS WHAT IT ALL WORKS AS WELL. EVEN THE POWER ANTENNA IS STILL WORKING AS IT SHOULD.
THE EXTERIOR IS JUST GORGEOUS WITH THE COLOR COMBO. THE BODY IS LASER STRAIGHT WITH NOT EVEN A HINT OF RUST BECAUSE THIS CAR HAS BEEN STORED INSIDE SINCE 1975 SO IT HAS BEEN WELL PRESERVED. I ALSO WANT TO ADD THAT IF YOU LOOK AT THE LIGHT THAT'S IN BOTH SIDES OF THE FRONT FENDERS ARE BIGGER THAN MOST OF THE LIGHTS IN A LOT OF OTHER DELTA 88'S WHICH ARE SMALLER I HAVE ONLY SEEN THESE BIG LIGHTS IN A FEW OF THESE CARS, AND BELIEVE IT HAS TO BE SOME TYPE OF SPECIAL EDITION THAT WERE ONLY OFFER ON A SELECT FEW OF THESE BEAUTIFUL CARS. THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE WITH NO RIPS/STAINS. THE TOP ALSO HAS A GLASS WINDOW. I WANT TO ADD THAT LESS THAN A MONTH AGO I HAD A BRAND NEW TOP MOTOR/RELAY INSTALLED AS WELL AS BOTH L+R TOP CABLES. I STILL HAVE ALL THE OLD PARTS THAT WERE TAKEN OFF. THIS CAR EVEN HAS THE FACTORY THERMOMETER THAT'S ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE MIRROR. YOU GUESSED IT STILL WORKS! I DO NEED TO TELL YOU THAT THE REAR BUMPER DOES HAVE 2 SMALL DINGS THAT ARE BARELY NOTICEABLE UNLESS YOU'RE JUST LOOKING FOR THEM. I HAVE THE DINGS PICTURED IN THE PHOTOS THERE IS ALSO A SECTION OF THE RUBBER BELT TRIM MISSING THAT RUNS ALONG THE TOP OF THE DOOR AGAINST THE WINDOW. I HAVE ALREADY PURCHASED A WHOLE SET OF THE TRIM EVEN THOUGH THE DRIVER'S DOOR IS THE ONLY DOOR THAT NEEDS IT. I JUST HAVEN'T HAD TIME TO GET IT INSTALLED YET, BUT OF COURSE IT'S INCLUDED IN THE DEAL. THE REST OF THE RUBBER WEATHER STRIPPING THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE CAR IS IN AMAZING CONDITION.
THE ENGINE IS BEAUTIFUL AND LOOKS LIKE A BRAND NEW 455(7.5L) BIG BLOCK WITH PLENTY OF POWER. EVERYTHING FROM 1975 IS PRESENT UNDER THE HOOD WITH NOTHING MISSING. THE SPARK PLUGS, WIRES, DISTRIBUTOR CAP, AND ROTOR ARE ALL BRAND NEW. THE CAR LITERALLY RUNS LIKE A SEWING MACHINE! THIS CAR IS JUST A CREME PUFF! OF COURSE THE AC IS WORKING, AND VERY COOOLD. IT'S ALSO BEEN CONVERTED TO R134 SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THE HEADACHE WITH TRYING TO FIND THE OLD STYLE FREON. I WOULDN'T BE AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR ACROSS COUNTRY WITH THE CONDITION IT'S IN. YOU HAVE FOUND YOURSELF A GEM WITH THIS CAR, AND PLEASE DON'T TRY TO WAIT AROUND THE LAST MINUTE TO BID BECAUSE YOU MIGHT LOSE OUT ON A BEAUTIFUL COLLECTOR CAR. I HAVE A CLEAN TITLE IN MY NAME FOR THIS CAR READY TO SIGN OVER TO THE WINNING BIDDER. PLEASE CHECK MY 100% FEEDBACK, AND SEE THAT YOU ARE DEALING WITH A HONEST SELLER THAT CARES ABOUT THE INTEGRITY OF DOING GOOD BUSINESS WITH PEOPLE. GOOD LUCK, AND THANKS FOR READING MY DELTA 88 BOOK LOL!!!
***I'M NOT SURE IF YOUR COMPUTER IS LETTING YOU SEE THE BEAUTY OF THE DOVE GRAY COLOR THAT'S ON THIS CAR. THE COLOR OF THE CAR LOOKS TOTALLY DIFFERENT ON THE COMPUTER SCREEN THAN IT LOOKS IN PERSON BECAUSE ON MY COMPUTER SCREEN THE CAR LOOKS LIKE A OFF WHITE. JUST GOOGLE DOVE GRAY TO GET A BETTER VISUAL FEEL OF THIS COLOR.
