-69 Delta 88 Holiday Newbie

Hi all, just got a 1969 Delta 88 Holiday.
Its my first Olds ever, and I got it to be able to bring the rest of the family on some weekend roadtrips.
Very glad to find this forum!

Holiday Sedan!😎 350 or 455 car?

The 69 big cars had a "menacing" presence, esp the hardtops in darker colors.

It’s a 350, which suits me just fine with almost 7 buck a gallon here in Sweden..😅

I agree. Classy, with a little bit of the
”evil” side in there aswell.
Even though the cabriolets are nice, I like the hard top lines better, and this model works fine as a 4 door option.

Thanks👍 , yes the 69’s are nice!
The former owner chucked a set of Bmw rims on and at first I was not all that sure, but they actually look quite cool. Someone has lowered it about
1-1,5 inch too, but it works fine, no bottoming out even with 6 people in it.
