Customized 1987 Delta 88. Custom 442-like paint and custom "Oldsmobile Super 88" logo on doors and trunk lid. Extremely rare "W88" dealer-installed front air dam. Grill/headlight surrounds have been blacked out and the grills recessed. Chrome on body has been blacked out. Rear bumper has been professionally powder-coated. Rear spoiler and functional hood vents are from an 89 Pontiac Firebird T/A. The non-functional "Turbo Bulge" was installed "new in box" and was a spare part for a 1981 Turbo Monte Carlo. Hood pins are functional and are 1968 Oldsmobile 442 reproductions. Wheels are aftermarket. Original load-leveling system to include rear struts, rear springs and air pump have been removed and replaced with heavy-duty springs and air bags. Steering unit, sway bar bushings and tie-rod ends recently replaced. Steering is tight. Front strut bar (under hood) is off of a Cadillac that had a V-8 and utilized the same chassis (bolted right in with no modifications required). Brakes were completely redone summer 2017. No engine or transmission modifications. Drivetrain is completely stock. Engine does not burn or leak oil or antifreeze. Transmission shifts great with no leaks. In fact this car does not leak any fluids. Original muffler was replaced with a dual exhaust muffler. It is not true dual-exhaust as exhaust system from engine to catalytic converter is totally stock. Car has been in the family since new and has always been meticulously maintained. On to the interior... custom, one of a kind Oldsmobile floor mats in front and back. Converted from column shift, bench seat to floor shift and bucket seats. Floor shifter and console are from a Delta 88 Touring Edition. Bucket seats are manually adjustable and are from a 2007 Saturn. I had seat mounts custom-made to use the original seat bolt locations. No hack job on this car. Alpine Radio/CD/satellite with Bluetooth for hands-free phone usage. Customizing this car has been a labor of love for me for the past 8 years. Attention to detail has been my passion.I am getting on in years. It is time for someone else to take it to the next level such as installing a turbocharger or later model turbocharged or supercharged drivetrain.Less
