HOLA from Argentina

Hello, my name is Luciano, I'm from Argentina, a few weeks ago I found a 88 Delta 66, it was love at first sight, and this in my house

I found this forum looking for information and decisive sign, I hope you can help me with the restorations and the search for the parts that I need, in addition to the assembly process as this totally disarmed, I show you some pictures, thanks for recivirme, greetings from the third world

PD. Sorry, I do not speak English, I am using a translator, a word may sound bad

Your English is just fine. But you DO have your car described incorrectly. It is a 1966 "Delta 88", where the 88 goes with the word Delta as the model name, and it is a car from the 1966 model year.

Good luck with it. It looks like a project with lots of potential.

Welcome Luciano. Not too many members from your part of the world on here. Your new old car looks really clean, how did you find it?

Thanks, we speak Spanish here, as throughout South and Central America, the only one who does not speak Portuguese is Brazil

Not many Olds arrived here, my car was a gentleman who was restoring it and could not finish it, and I will show the work you have done, here's a picture of the state in which I found

Welcome to the site Luciano!! Looks like you have a lot of work ahead of you with that Olds. I'd like to see pictures of your progress there. Does it have an engine?
Is that lamb looking at his reflection in the trailer tire hubcap?? Too funny!

Welcome, bienvenido.
Is that lamb for Easter Sunday? ¿Es ese corderito para la fiesta de Pascua?

Ho yes, there is a 425 engine disassembly, ready for arming, repaired some time ago its crankshaft, cylinders were revised, this new oil pump, heads were also repaired, we must review the camshaft, not there lifters or push rods, no water pump, that's what's missing from what I saw so far, see photos

Not a lamb is one of my five dogs, "Madame Sisi" is his name lol

Thanks friend, not let you down with the restoration, you will see that on this side of the world also can do good things, it is more difficult, much more expensive, but you can, I appreciate the welcome and prepare to answer many questions lol, will have to help, here there is no other Delta 66, no spare parts, my car is missing a window, steering wheel and probably anything else you have not seen, will have to get help, greetings from the Third World

Welcome
I have some parts for that car

I see a "Holiday" type 4-door - no post between doors, no frame around the windows. I may not have the window glass because most of my parts cars are B-post 4-door cars.

Please cite your VIN [on tag riveted to driver's door jamb?]
and the body tag picture or info would help to get the correct parts.
The body tag is about 50x80mm, under the hood, driver side, near the windshield.

Good start on a great 425 motor. Clean it up and see what you need.

I see a 2-barrel intake manifold, casting #391136 [https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums...e-thread.html] - would like to know what is the large letter ID of that intake, typically found in the depression, passenger side, just aft of the front water crossover.

Welcome to the site.

I had the same car many years ago. I wish I still had mine. Only part I have left is the horn button from the steering wheel.

Good luck with your restoration.
