I have no association with the seller. Posting only for interested parties.

He posts a rather worthless set of photos.

From what you can see that looks like the makings of a decent car. Interior appears to be very nice. Outside and engine photos would help.

People need to stop the marketing BS.

Asking $5,000 obo Rare made by Olds for 2 years... Delmont 88 Holiday Coupe
Rare??? Hardly. In those two years of production Olds built just under 60,000 Delmont Holiday Coupes. More to the point, it was simply a low-rent version of the Delta 88. The fact that the nameplate was only used for two years doesn't mean that 2dr B-body cars are rare.

I find this is quite common with people who are not familiar with the rust belt, or this is the very first car they've ever sold.
The money shots are the under carriage/frame, trunk floor, inner wells, drop offs etc.., door seams, metal front/back dashes cowl under the wipers etc...The spoiled dry car people dont think like a rust belter...thus worthless pictures most of the time.

Those are good pics by Craigslist standards. There was no pic of the front or the back with the sellers hand over the license plate!

Imo, the "rare" is the demand for the bigger cars.
