73 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Convertible Old's Coupe Eighty Eight 455 V8 Classic Youngtimer

73 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Convertible Coupe 455 Big Block V8 Eighty Eight Classic Youngtimer www.1ownercargu... This is a very nice 73 Olds Delta 88 Convertible that runs great and looks great. It has the big 455 Engine in it and the car fires right up and runs great. It has a lot of power and just cruises down the road. The exterior is very clean, the paint looks great and has a nice shine to it. The matching white top is in good condition but does need a new back window. The white matching interior is in excellent condition. The seats show hardly any wear at all and don't have any rips or tears in them anywhere. Everything on the cars seems to work. Very clean car inside and out that doesn't need much work at all to be a very sweet car.

From Wikipedia:
All GM B-body full-size cars were completely restyled and enlarged for 1971, but continued to ride on a 124-inch (3,150 mm) wheelbase. It was available as a pillared four-door Town Sedan, two-door and four-door Holiday hardtops and a convertible. Series models for 1971 included the base Delta 88, Delta 88 Custom and Delta 88 Royale, the latter inheriting the convertible body style previously offered on the base Delta 88. All models received fuselage styling somewhat similar to what Chrysler Corporation introduced on its 1969 models, and new rooflines with a more squared off greenhouse for Town sedans and more rounded lines for Holiday sedans and coupes -- the latter receiving reverting to a semi-fastback format.
Also new for 1971 was the Custom Cruiser station wagon, the first full-sized Olds wagon since 1964. It used the 88's B-body platform with a longer 127-inch (3,200 mm) wheelbase (matching the larger C-body Ninety-Eight) with multi-leaf spring suspensions that differed entirely from the all-coil suspensions used in sedans and coupes. The Custom Cruiser came standard with the larger 455 Rocket V8 and utilized the disappearing clamshell tailgate of other full-size GM wagons.
Engine offerings again included 350 and 455-cubic-inch Rocket V8s ranging from 250 to 340 gross horsepower, all of which featured lowered compression ratios beginning in 1971 to enable use of lower octane regular leaded 91 RON octane, low-lead or unleaded gasoline. Vented power front disc brakes and variable-ratio power steering were now standard equipment on all 88 models. During the 1971 model year the Turbo Hydra-matic 400 transmission was added to the standard equipment list.
For 1973, wider and lower split waterfall grilles flanked a new federally mandated 5 mph (8.0 km/h) front bumper on all Delta 88 models and larger one-piece rounded rectangular taillights replaced the four-segmented lights of 1972. Engine offerings included a standard 350 Rocket V8 with two-barrel carburetor (150 net horsepower) or optional 455 Rocket V8 with four-barrel carburetion and 215 hp (160 kW) with single exhaust or 250 hp (186 kW) with dual exhausts. Model offerings were the same as 1972 with the Delta 88 Royale series now including the sole Olds convertible offering following the demise of the intermediate Cutlass Supreme convertible after 1972.

Still got one today, as a daily driver. Got some video's on my channel.. love these cars!!!! Great video!!

[@luanloud9454]

12:57 so big door buzzer!

[@jinglejazz7537]

beautiful boat, I so miss the big cars.

[@markansas859]

I had a friend whose mom had a red/white top 73 Oldsmobile convertible... love it when those secondaries kick in... nothing like a Quadrajet carburetor yeah, buddy!!!

[@kobbetop]

This is why I don't watch tv anymore, you post so many 30min videos of these full size beasts...awesome :D

[@groove420]

I had a 74' Regency 98 Coupe w/the 455 4bbl. in the classic "Marauder Maroon" color. Surely the longest doors of any car I've owned. The 455 has good power and the car is faster than you would think w/room for 7 or 8 people from the late 80's or 4 from today. One of my favorite sleepers, despite having a face only a mother would love...

[@jinglejazz7537]

I remember as a kid when the 73's came out with the extended bumpers, they were great, some teachers had them, we'd sit on them and eat our lunch, like a picnic table. teachers complained so we went to the old way, sitting on older car hoods and eat our lunch, lol.

[@Holy_Moses]

my aunt owned one exactly like this. brings back memories as a child

[@SuperCuttyBlackSow]

Bought one in the fall fixing the gas tank and top right now. Very nice car I’m glad I bought it cause I’m a huge evil dead fan

[@TrentJordan3198]

Nathan, this is one intriguing and groovy example of an early 70's Olds. It's a shame that the roof can not go down. You know, the Olds 88s and 98s from 1968-1974 are intriguing and groovy too. I dig that Rocket logo of that time, and you know what's intriguing about safety for this car of the year 1973. The hydraulic impact absorbing front-bumper. When you hit something into the front, the hydraulic pushes you back and comes to a complete stop and everything in the front isn't deformed, except you would find a dent there! Also, this car is very solid thanks to the thick steel framing. The groovy times of 1968-1974. Imagine if this car is brand new, it would be like: *Casey Kasem on radio for American Top 40 on Saturdays. *On Saturday morning, there would be Scooby Doo, Looney Tunes, Archie, and DC/Marvel superhero stuff. *1973 would be the fuel crisis and everyone started buying Beetles and Pintos. *Ford Pinto is the popular car back then, but if a car gets rear ended in a Pinto, the Pinto would be on fire. *Music: Beatles, Simon & Garfunkel, Three Dog Night, Roberta Flack, David Bowie. *Movies: 2001 A Space Odyssey, The Godfather, The Exorcist, Planet of the Apes, Fritz the Cat. *TV: Brady Bunch, Adams Family, Star Trek, M*A*S*H, Charlie Brown and Snoopy.

Cool car. My dad has a 1976 Olds 442 W30 455. Its one of 14 known to exist in North America. He has owned it since 1979 and it took me and my 2 bros home from the hospital. He is the president of the Oldsmobile Northern Lights Chapter here in Alberta and his club is driving down to Cali next month and meeting Jay Leno at his garage to talk cars and going to the tonight show. Look up Ken 1976 Olds 442. Its the blue/silver one. Tons of pics. I love driving it. Its a total panty dropper lol.

[@Illousion1]

I'd prefer it if all of your test drives were like this, a bit of city driving, a bit of highway. Nice one Nathan!

[@mecaniquejp]

I've got a 1975 Buick Lesabre Convertible 455, damn I love those 70s B body convertibles.

[@johanbrand8601]

STUNNING

[@user-tv3jx9pi8p]

Groovy

[@MegaZombieland1234]

When you give some peddle , that secondary sound what is that ? is that just the sounds a big block does ? :P

[@AntonSander]

Yes, the 500 was the largest motor they put in a production car. It was introduced in the 1970 model year. The 472 was used in the 1965 - 1970, and 1971 - 1976 Cadillac DeVille, and the 500 was used in the 1971 - 1976 DeVille. & both motors where also used in the FWD Eldorado's. Dream cars of mine... and I'm only 17 lol.

[@chevken1831]

Man do I miss the '73 98 sedan that I had years ago.

[@Illousion1]

I'd say that's the intake noise. sure sounds great on the ol' four barrels :)

[@chevken1831]

It's cool how they put an electric rear defogger in some of these convertibles.

[@frequencyfluxfandango8504]

What a Grooovy automobile. They will never make em like This again; that's 4 sure. Maybe cars of this size didn't corner like today's modern euro-boxes, but this ride was a boulevard cruiser, made for America's long straight highways. Performance meant something slightly different back then. It meant that the car had to have a big gas guzzling engine, and it had to LOOK as though it was really moving when it was in your drive-way. It had to be long and flowing, wide as a barge and smooth in look and feel. It had to glide under way with a majestic surging ease. And this car ticks all those boxes ...Hot as Lava baby !

[@AntonSander]

Yea, we had two 3rd generation Chevy pickups, both with 350's. My friends dad had two as well, I think one had a 305 though. Best trucks they (GMC/Chevy) ever made. I still see many on the roads everyday, that's the proof.

[@slaughter15608]

Great sounding car way better than I expected!

[@rogerstill71]

Gorgeous. Just gorgeous.

[@julianhosking]

Lovin your videos Nathan! I had a 73 delta 88 convertible here in the uk a few years back! Real nice cars!

[@Coronet_shop]

wrong evil dead car was a 1973 olds delta 88 4dr sedan with a yellowish mustard color

[@ramiram84]

my dad was given one in that green color.man i miss it.

[@Theshark15z]

Ash is a character played by Bruce Campbell. In the movie "The Evil Dead", Ash drives a 73' Oldsmobile Delta 88 and in the same color as this one.

[@2H2521]

Theshark15z That exact same car was also used in the original Spider-Man trilogy as Uncle Ben & Aunt May’s, along with several other Sam Raimi films he directed too.

[@eldo59]

I remember the red one from Blue Velvet (1986).

[@JakeTheSnakeProductions]

Makes me wanna play "Driver 2", only in real life, with that car.. it's a pimp-mobile :D

[@julianhosking]

They sure did! But my latest is the biggest show stopper over here! 59 Buick le sabre!

[@michaeljdburns]

Fantastic car! Shame it wouldn't fit on the roads in my country :-)

[@FiveFurys5]

13:01 Buzz

[@scdevon]

The kind of car that sucks up asphalt ahead of it and shits it out the back for hours on end. A great cruiser.

[@Draco-X2000]

[@Draco-X2000]

[@Theshark15z]

[@Braterdapfel]

[@Dinkymaster7]

Okay, thanks!

[@josephburch2301]

[@Ethanwise1235]

The 73 delta 88 had a hydraulic bumper

[@nintendoatarikiller]

That thing is a boat.

[@CHEVYSORCROWNS]

[@Dinkymaster7]

Hello! Has this car a 3 or 4 speed transmission?

[@shwt121]

Dinkymaster7 -THM 400/ 3 SPD.

[@tobitorcende276]

[@crisandres94]

[@shwt121]

SO, MARSHMALLOWS, DID YOU SELL THIS YET OR WHAT ????? AND IF YOU DID, WHY DONT YOU TAKE DOWN THIS AD??????

[@Lincolntowncoupe]

I wish that where I came from there were more cars like this just driving around. Instead where I live all the vehicles driving around are jacked up new trucks and rusty old trucks, and the closest thing to a classic is a beat to shit 1988 pontiac parisienne that's too beaten up to be saved

[@xLuiKangx007]

Cool

[@AntonSander]

Same.

[@ferrochinabisleri1587]

10 miles per gallon?

[@dogwhisper934]

It's probably about 8

[@JOHNNYFUTS]

I know, there are so many people shooting some good videos. I got rid of my cable bill.

[@AntonSander]

So the 472 and 500 cu. in. Cadillac V8's where stoker motors? Huh.. never knew.

[@kobbetop]

I watch the news and that's about it these days lol..

[@shwt121]

[@BigLou874]

[@SuperB7777777]
