Well, I think I have one pic of an old Cadillac in there somewhere! Lots of cars were there. The brown Vista was not beautiful like Bluevista's is! It's engine was very dirty and ugly and leaking oil on the valve covers.

The yellowish one - don't know if it is a cutlass or what - was not beautiful either, but I guess he's proud of that engine with those big blower hose thingys on it! I didn't like it. It also had like slick wide tires on the back. Vinyl top was moldy or something. It had different tail lights too, not like a Cutlass, no badges on it anywhere. You guys probably know what it is. No hood pad, but you could tell where they tore the old one off - all rough and ugly under there!

But there were beautiful ones there too!

Be careful. If you start lapsing into technical jargon, you may lose people.

Those would be cold air tubes to allow the motor to make more power drawing from the highbeam headlight spot.......That also looks like a Oldsmobile Delmont... kinda of rare car and a nice one! I also could be full of it! lol

If you're talking about the first picture with the red car, I believe that's a '67 Delta 88. You can't read it, but you can see that the script is on the rear fender just forward of the bumper, which is where they were located on the '67 Deltas. On the Delmonts, the script was just behind the front wheels on each side.

Now before someone chimes in on this, the '67 Delta 88 Customs had their scripts just behind the front wheels, also, so this could not be a Custom.

Bluevista

The correct term would be Round Flexible Aluminum Clothes Dryer Exhaust Duct.

Probably hot as the inside of a Chinese laundry RFACDED at that cruise yesterday.

I took that Vista for a test drive.
It's from Texas and has a clean body and frame, not all that bad but he wanted 5k for it four years ago. For how rare clean Vista bodies and frames are it may not be that bad a deal the way the prices are going up and how much it would cost to transport here from out west, if you could get it for that now.
Dig the groovy H/O hood scoop, and 442 emblems.
He also has a Cowboy Woody doll in the car, fitting that the car is a woody and from Texas.
Does Woody have a woody in that Toy Story movie??
I've never seen it, I'm old school and relate more deeply with the comedic genius of a Mr. Woodrow "Woody" Woodpecker.

no this one....

This is a '70 Delta 88, I think. I can't see the tailights. But it is certainly a '70 88 or 98. Delmonts were made for only 1967 and 1968.

I don't know what it was - no emblems, just holes where the emblems would go on the sides. It's tail lights were straight up and down - not real wide, kinda thin, and not sideways like a cutlass goes. I should have taken a pic from the back.

The clothes dryer exhaust duct (that's funny!) did go in to the headlights. I never saw that before, lol!

The 1970 88 and 98 both had vertical taillights. For the 88s, the light was divided halfway up by a chrome strip, and it was an angular lens coming to a point. For the 98s, the lens was vertical and flat and recessed behind the trailing edge of the rear fenders.

Here's the rear of a '70 98 (the white one) and a '70 88 (the green one).
