Smile 77 98 black on firethorn loaded Regency with 34k miles.

Hi there. I posted our latest Oldsmobile find under Cutlass a few days ago. An 80 Cutlass Supreme Brougham with a perfect running original 350 Diesel with 40k original miles, loaded with everything, leather, power driver and passenger seats which I have never seen on any Cutlass, fiber optics, cornering lamps, two tone paint, the works. The car came from the private collection of one of Mike Tyson's trainers to add to our personal Oldsmobile collection. We just got hold of another Olds from this amazing collection. A beautiful black on firethorn red 77 98 Regency, also loaded to the max including twin power seats with recliners, the 403, tilt and telly wheel, original wire wheels and only 34k original miles. The car still smells new. I will post photos after we clean the dust off and get her running again. Love these Oldsmobiles!

98 photos.

Here are a few photos of the 77 98. Sorry for the rain drops in the photos but as you can see, the car is still in beautiful original condition with 34k original miles. That is the original black paint with the original red painted pinstripe. Next to it was a 79 Buick Electra Limited with only 17k original miles in about the same condition which we also brought home. There were two 73 Cadillacs which we also bought, a Fleetwood Brougham with 29k miles and a Coupe DeVille with 47k miles. If there are any Buick or Caddy guys here, I can post a few photos if you like. This guy loved big low mile GM Luxury cars.

Both nice cars. That Regency is a real comfortable car model to drive. Not a lot of power on tap, but enough and very smooth. Nice color combo too.

Post away at the pictures. You might not get a lot of responses, but most of the folks do enjoy looking.

Nice finds, they are good examples of what was available back then.

Why can't new luxury cars come with comfortable seats like that?

Here are a few photos of the 79 Electra Limited that was parked next to the 77 98. The Buick only has 17k miles. The Olds only has 34k miles.

Buick or not, I still like it.

They will always catch my eye. Full framed, with just enough power, but comfort was still there. Nice american cars.

A signal that the end was near.The future would not be the same.
