hi everyone. i just joined. i also just started my first olds project. i scored a rust free 1970 olds delta 88 holiday coupe with a locked up 455 for 500 bucks.

 

Welcome to CO, Cullman, Alabama! Great buy on the land yacht! When you figure out "how", post some pictures for everybody to enjoy!

 

Welcome to the board! Show us some pictures of this score.

Rust Free??? You've got more than 1/2 your problems solved right there!! $500 bucks is a score.

I really like the body style of the 70. Here's a pic of one I found on the web. It's claimed to be all original.







uhhh, this ain't original as you can see by all the brackets being painted same as the engine. Looks purrrrty though.



BUILD SHEET - That's gold right there. If all the other docs are with the car.....

 

Welcome to our site! Great deal ya got there!

 

it came with a stack of original paper work. the window sticker, the build sheet, the protect a plate, the waranty paper, the owners manual, even the original key knock outs. but its got lincoln wheels on it.

Welcome aboard

Now how cool is all that paper work.

 

Welcome to our site, you found a great one there.....

 

What does the interior look like? The body looks good. Don't worry about the wheels, that's an easy replacement - I believe they are 15"?

 

Now the fun begins. You'll find lots of help here. Good luck with your restore

 

thanks everyone. the interior is OK. the seats and headliner need redone, but the dash is perfect. the door panels are a lil dry rotted. the power windows work but they are wobbly and try tto bind. guides maybe?

 

Hi. Welcome in this forum. I hope that we can have a good companionship here.

 

Welcome to the CO and congrats on your new ride, it has tons of potential. I like it.

Great car to restore...I wouldn't expect too many 2-door Deltas to have been ordered with power windows. I wonder what other options it has. What was the original color combination?

I used to live in Jasper, btw.

 

it was originally white with a blue vinyl top. its got the power windows am fm serophonic radio a/c tilt away sterring wheel. pretty much the only option it doesnt have is the 8 track. it had nearly 2000 bucks worth of options on top of the base price.

 

White and blue combos are nice. Only, I would go with the reverse, white top and blue bottom. I think that looks way nicer. Sounds like you'll be busy for a while.

 

well im thinking about doing it 2 tone blue. medium blue body with a royal blue top. no vinyl top tho. i hate those things.
