Wow for a long time i thought i was the only one to ever hear about a Delta Custom.

My first car back in 92/93 or so was a 1968 Olds Delta Custom 2dr holiday Coupe. Had the buckets and console shifter, tilt/telescopic wheel 455 2bl, i bought it from a freind of my dads for 500 bucks, and shortly after that had to rebuild the entire front end, ended up spinning a bearing in the engine and bought a 70 88 4dr for a parts car and swapped in the motor and trans and snagged the front disk brakes off it to swap on to my car. Swapped the 2bl for a 4bl carb and the car would top out somewhere north of 130+. was a fun car, and due to a stupid mistake i wrecked it, and couldnt find the parts to fix the front end and parted out what i could and scraped the rest.

I wish i had some pics of it, i really liked that car, and when i moved to Houston in 98 i seen one just like mine but i had a bench seat and the guy was asking 3500 for it or something like that, i thought about buying it, but wanted to find one with the buckets and console, have never seen another one since.

Great find.
