Empire Olds meet Denver 1992

I found these pictures recently. I am pretty sure thay are from 1992. Possibly 91. Empire Oldsmobile Denver Colorado. The 70 W-30 was owned by a local guy here named Wayne. Pretty sure it was a 4 speed car. The black 68 Toronado was all chromed out under the hood. The Buick wagon is awesome.

My 54 Olds was sold new at Empire Olds in May 1954I actually bought a nice Empire trunk emblem off ebay but I am not going to drill holes to put it on.

It's actually pretty cool how many Oldsmobiles that are still getting love came from Empire Oldsmobile.

Code 75 red with pearl bench seat. Had a white vinyl top added but code 75 painted top on the trim tag. Probably vinyl top was added at Empire. Like the looks of the white top but will leave it off to match the trim tag. Wish there were more pics of Empire from back in the day

I will keep digging.

Red Red top post 442 sounds cool as sh**. Empire Oldsmobile was established and known. Oldsmobile owners were true back in the day. So many repeat customers. I was a kid on my paper bike when I first started going there. I bought a full set of 70 442 emblems. W-30 emblems also from them. I knew one day that I would own a 70 442.

Thanks for sharing the pics! Those really take me back. I never attended any of the get-togethers, but all three of my Mom's Cutlii were bought there. I have fond memories of being there with Mom and Dad. The love for Olds runs in my blood.

That’s a true Olds fan to spend your paper route money on 442 emblems! Sounds like a cool place to spend your time at too. I remember our little local Olds dealer had an aroma of gear oil and a musty smell from washing the floors often.
