I didn’t want to but she eventually wore me down. She offered to give me her Cherokee if I would get rid of the Olds. She had just bought a new Honda Accord and still had her 1988 Jeep Cherokee that she had not traded in. I was in my early 40s at the time with a family of my own. I was perfectly happy with it but my mother hated it for some reason.

It was such a pleasure to drive anywhere in it and the Delco AM/FM cassette player sounded just fine. Strangely enough it ran fine with the broken mounts even though the engine was trying to twist itself out of the chassis. I decided that replacing the transmission mount at the same time was a good idea. I discovered the other mount was also broken when I was repairing the first one. I knew it had a broken motor mount when I bought it. I had never entertained the idea of owning one but the quality and comfort were a welcome surprise compared to what I usually drove. The Olds suddenly became available and I bought it after a quick look and test drive.

I needed a car to replace the very clean, reliable and economical Plymouth Horizon I was driving that was totaled in a 20 car pile-up due to a sudden downpour and and oil on the road. Me too! Me too! I had me one too! Mine was a 1983 Delta 88 Royal Brougham in Dark Briar Brown Iridescent, a padded top and brown velour bench seat interior. I believe SP oil is the 1st rating not tested in old motors. I have use the older supertech conventinal and did not have a problem. Drained it out and put in traveler 10w40 and oil pressure went back up and noise went away. I put this in a older dodge 318 magnum and lost about 30lbs oil pressure and lifters started to rattle. Darn.Īnybody notice that the good Supertech dino & HIGH mileage dino oils have recently been replaced with “ALL mileage” syn blend oil? I’ve seen “ALL mileage” on another brand too – hope it’s not a trend because a 1 star review below disturbs me! & i quote … What brand of 10W40 oil do you use? Is it high zinc or do you use a zinc additive or just regular SN oil by itself? I miss the old Quaker State hi mileage syn blend(btw) DEFY high zinc SL oil in the red plastic containers that i got ON SALE at KAY-mart. Bidders are anxious to snag this one, have any of you owned one? They say that it has recently had a new radiator and a major “tune-up/fix-up” to make sure that it’s ready for the road. It would have had 140 horsepower and 240 ft-lb of torque. The engine is, I believe, an Oldsmobile 307 cubic-inch V8.

The seller mentions that their grandmother didn’t want any power options so this car has manual windows and locks, but it still has a power driver’s seat – which isn’t working – and a power antenna. The interior looks fantastic but you can see that these big, flat-yet-somehow-still-comfy seating surfaces weren’t exactly sculped with bolsters to hold you in on curves as with most modern vehicle seats. We’ve seen a few of them here at Barn Finds and they are nice cars. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen this generation of Oldsmobile out on the street, in a parking lot, at a car show, or really anywhere – at least in person. In fact, the seller says that it’s the quietest car that they have ever owned. The luxury difference wasn’t life-changing to go with an 88 Royale, this is still a very nice, quiet, smooth car. In fact, Oldsmobile buyers loved this configuration so much that more than a few Olds 98 buyers, or former Olds 98 buyers, stepped down a notch to buy these cars as Oldsmobile had recently introduced a front-wheel-drive 98. This is the last year of the eighth-generation Oldsmobile 88 and it was the last rear-wheel-drive version. It also has only 41,000 miles on it, 6,000 of which were put on by the current owner, the grandchild of the original owner, the seller’s grandmother. While it’s not rust-free, it’s mostly rust-free and the seller has included a couple of photos showing some minor areas where rust is lurking. This looks like a really nice car but wow, what is this one going to sell for at the end of this no-reserve auction? It does have a few things going for it.
