[Aussie67Delta88Custom]

Allan,
I nearly did it ! ... but no... I am not purchasing the vehicle.

I talked many times with the owner ... a nice bloke who also owns a Buick something or other.
It sounds like a very good, honest vehicle with a reconditioned Olds 350, rebuilt front end, paint done by a professional about 8 years ago and still in VGC., power rear window, etc.
I told him it was a bit pricey for what I could afford and he said he'd sell it for $15,000 ... hmmm.
Then he emailed me to say he had found a vehicle he wanted to buy and would sell it "Cheap" ... I called him and he said the truck he wanted was $12000 and he would let her go for that ! I nearly drove down to see it then and there.

But ! Last night i took stock of how I could use it without getting it damaged and the vehicles I have right now including 2 projects that will cost $$ to complete ... even though one is just to be sold and decided against adding her to the fleet.

I reckon it would be a great car for someone and the bloke has been really good about the whole thing even after I pulled out of buying it.

I am looking forward toget my 67 Delta 88 Custom on the road and just cruisin' !

I asked him about the right hand drive set up and he said that it had been converted here to RHD and not done in the factory. pedals are in the same locations as LHD but on the other side.
It would've been a quality conversion, not just a quick fix like the one in my Delta, but either way it works.

Thanks for your interest and keep an eye on the website for some idea of the Oldsmobiles that have made it over to Australia.
