more than any other manufacturer! The car used for the 61st Indy 500 was a 77 Olds Delta 88 Targa Top driven by James Garner.

The car featured a unique targa top design that would not be available on the replicas.

Oldsmobile made a limited amount of replicas available for sale.

Could use new paint on hood, trunk and roof to be considered a show quality car! Front bumper in excellent condition. Rear bumper has no dents but is starting to show some surface rust!
  • INTERIOR: All original in EXCELLENT CONDITION. No damage or wear detected! Stock radio was replaced with an aftermarket Audiovox AM/FM Cassette. Radio powers on, but does not work due to antenna not working!Power Windows work but are slow moving.

I purchased the car from the original owner's daughter and she really had no information about the car. In the last three months a Brand new Flo-master exhaust system, new Good Year F60-15 Poly-Glas GT Tires, New front/rear brakes, New A/C compressor and dryer were all done!
    • TH350 trans shifts real nice, and no leaks! All new front end parts - Drives down the road straight and stops straight!
