Delta 88s

It seems there has been a resurgence in interest in the Delta 88s/Delmontes etc. Is it just my imagination??? Personally, I think it's great.

the regulars are diminishing and getting out of price range (cutlass,442's,chevelles,gtos,gtx etc etc)even the "cloneable" muscle cars are getting way up there in price for junk hardly restorable shells. i think the full size olds are still available and reasonable. besides being beautiful "big muscle" cars. ive had my share of cutlass, camaros, firechickens and 55,56 and 57 chevys. but ive always kept my 66 dynamic 88 and always will. i think people are statring to finally respect these big solid cars. long live the big block big body olds!!!

Yes, so true. Our B bodies aren't as quick but offer a feel and ambience not possible in a little muscle car. I will probably keep mine as well, hoping to strike it rich some day and do a decent resto on it (with modifications of course).
