1973 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale Convertible Only 56,000 documented miles!!!! Wedgwood Blue, Black Interior & Black Top Original Rocket 350 cu in Engine, Automatic Transmission Extremely clean original condition with recent repaint in original factory correct color! Runs & Drives absolutely beautifully!! Starts right up. Idles great. Knocks down beautifully and purrs like a kitten. No smoke. Put her in drive, and the automatic transmission shifts through the gears unnoticeably. I have owned dozens of contemporary and classic cars and nearly every type of car, foreign & domestic, low end, high end, etc. and I can say that this is probably the smoothest and most comfortable car to sit in and drive that I have EVER owned! Everything operates as it should. With the exception of very few minor imperfections here and there, the car is extremely clean inside & out! Tires and top are only a couple years old and are like new. The paint is a quality repaint of the original color. Please see the pictures and pay particular attention to the photos of the engine bay! If you are looking for a Greenwich or Palm Beach Concours winner, this may not be your car, but, if you are looking for a solid, extremely clean original car that will turn heads everywhere & get you a few awards at local car shows, then look no further!! It has yet to leave the garage without getting a compliment (usually many!) before it returns home! The Wedgwood Blue is gorgeous and makes the car stand out from all the red and white convertibles that are out there. If you are considering this vehicle, you probably know that this one one of the last big Detroit convertibles of their generation. Classic car buffs agree that these cars are blue-chip investments with their worth increasing in recent years.... And projected to jump even higher in the next few years. Otherwise stated, maintain it and it will only increase in value... Perhaps significantly, sooner than later!! Also, this is a pre-catalytic converter car (cars sold in the U.S. from 1975 onward had to have them!) which makes it more desirable due to its better horsepower. MODEST RESERVE! Car is being sold AS-IS with no guarantee and/or warranty expressed, written or implied. The car is over 40 years old and as such, one should expect imperfections, etc. of a car this old. I am not a dealer and have included MANY pictures for the prospective bidder/buyer to review and satisfy themselves with the overall condition of the car. Mutually conveniently arranged inspections of the vehicle can also be arranged to further satisfy anyone as to the car's condition, but must be made prior to auction close. It is the bidders/buyers responsibility to take all reasonable measures to satisfy themselves with the condition of the car before entering a bid/buying the car. The car is currently registered in the state of CT and is safe to operate on the roads in CT. Connecticut does not issue a title on cars manufactured before 1981, so, this car does not come with a CT title. I do have an older NJ Title that I am happy to include. Included will be an official CT Bill of Sale.
