Thatw as for sale on one of the FB pages. $8K. It was described as needing a good bit of work but it was a running, driving car. Give the owner credit for not trying to sand bag anyone.

Bamboo seems to be more brownish or tan to me , but I have been wrong before.
Any one else ?

Bamboo is a pale yellow, but that pic is in the full sun, which could have washed it out a bit. But, as he said it has been painted before, so the tone may not be same.

The first car I owned was a 70 cutlass sx. It was black with white interior. Automatic on the floor with pwr steering & am radio. The car had white mag wheels & ran great. I bought the car in penna but didn't own it long (3 months) until I moved out west to ca. The cold weather in the east took a toll on the car (rear qtr panels). I paid $700.00 for it & my brother sold it for around $500.00. This was MANY yrs ago. The 2nd car I owned was a 1968 cougar w/power steering. The 3rd car I owned was a 1968 olds cutlass supreme loaded. The car I own now is no classic but I have owned it for 20 yrs (1985 olds delta 88). I have a smog due but the a/c clutch took a dump & I am going to have a belt rolled on by by-passing the a/c. The smog pump is not adjustable but a local shop said they can install a belt for 90.00 labor plus belt cost. I don't want to be nailed driving with expired tags even though I have paid the $93.00 registration. The smog laws in car for carbureted cars is unbelievable & unfair. My car does not blow black smoke & has 131k miles.
