Welcome to the site. Looks to be a pretty straight car. That's a bummer it isn't running well. Do you have the driver's side beltline trim and the driver's side front fender trim? GLWS!

Thanks! I have the beltline trim, and 1 of 2 front fender trim pieces, not sure which side it is

There was no such thing as a "Delta" 98. For all of its existence, the highest-end Oldsmobile line was known simply as the Ninety-Eight. "Delta" was used only with the 88 line.

Also, according to Setting the Pace, production of 1983 98 Regency Coupes was 13,816. It was the 1984 model year where 98 Regency Coupe production totaled 7,855.

All 1983 Oldsmobile 98s carried the "Regency" name. Regency Coupe, Regency Sedan, and Regency Brougham Sedan.

I didn't notice the typo. I just saw the rear tail lights and @$$umed that everyone knew it was a 98.

Thank you, post has been fixed.

Oh it drives us 98 owners nutty when people claim they have a "Delta 98". Once had a guy argue with me at a car show for hours telling me one of my 98s was really a "Delta 98". Finally told him to flat out FO and take a walk. Ah, just hearing that again....
