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.

Does it appear to be the original paint or color?

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.
