Q: My 1994 Delta 88 Royal won't change gears.

 1957 Oldsmobile 88   (Site not responding. Last check: )
It was a shock to see my Dad pull up in the driveway with a fl 1956 Oldsmobile 88 convertible.
My Mom still talks about "her Olds" with fondness and I still have wonderful memories of that old car that are sparked by sights and smells and especially deep rumbling sounds (although I have never heard the exact sound of the original muffler duplicated again, not even by my big brother's 1955 Chevy).
That car was amazing and at times when I daydream about what I would do if I had lots of money I realize that the first thing would be to find another Oldsmobile 88 and give it to my Mom because that car is one of the few automobiles classy enough for her to own.

But even bigger news was under the hood, as the 88 series now boasted one of the most powerful engines in the industry as standard equipment: the all-new Kettering-designed Rocket V-8 which made Oldsmobile an overnight performance heavyweight.

I bought the Delta 88 in March/1983 as the second owner in Seattle, Washington.
The Delta 88 Convertible has stayed in pretty good shape and hasn't required much mechanical work; although the gas gauge stopped working on me a few years ago and I found that out the "hard" way - there is no tripometer, so I know carefully write down the mileage when I fill it up!
