Greetings all, glad I found your site. Could somebody PLEASE help me find an '84 Delta 88 2 Door Royale Brougham in very good to excellent condition. I am in Chicago and would be willing to travel within a few hundred miles for the right car. Any further than that and it's sweet eneugh, lets just say I'm sure we can work something out.
Thanks, glad to be aboard. Richard F. aka TLPiggy.

Welcome to our site. Unfortunately you won't be able to find any early 80s B body coupes in the Chicago area. One of our members; J-Chicago, lives there and loves these cars. I am sure he owns all of the early 80s B body coupes within a few hundred miles of downtown Chicago.

Welcome aboard

X2 on what he said. Look up J Chicago and see if he can spare one.

And don't be fooled by that grey BOMB he has with the 71/72 cutlass bumper. It has a rather large "bite" to it.

welcome to the site.

Sorry, but you live in the middle of the rust belt. A few hundred miles may be unrealistic. On the other hand, in the last few months there have been MANY very low mileage 80s B-body cars on Ebay.

You guys are like 3 days rain but I do appreciate the welcomes. I will find my car.

Hey, rain is reality and we are just sharing it with you. Seriously though, welcome to CO and we will be on the lookout for you. Also, start another thread in the "Cars Wanted" forum near the bottom of the forums listing. Some people don't check on today's posts or new posts and go directly to particular forums like that.

I owned a '78 Delta 88 and really liked it, my wife loved that car but had to sell it to go overseas. The mid 80's B bodies were as nice if not nicer in comfort and probably got better gas mileage. Good luck in your search.

Good luck on finding your car.

Yes Sir, rain is all too real and unfortunatly I have a major lack of patience.

On a positive note I did a search a couple of months back (w/ no $ to buy at the time so I was just browsing) and found a beautiful '85 88 Royal Brougham. White w/ blue interior. Hoping against hope I did a search last night and it's still listed and unsold. I called the lady and she says she's in her 90's, Says her brother worked for Olds and picked out the car for her new. Says it's always been garage kept and well and regularly maintained w/ 65,000 miles but her eyesights going and it's time to sell and give up driving altogether. All the cliches I know and it would otherwise sound like a load a bs but I talked to her for about 20 mins. this a.m. and I believe her. I'm hoping to see the car this wknd. I can't wait! I'll post pics if & when I get her. She says she has an extra set of tires ta boot.

edit to add, Thanks citcapp.
