1968 Oldsmobile Delmont 88 resurrection

After a 4 year rest, the old 68 Delmont has come out of storage. lots of problems prevented it from being an easy start. The ultimate goal is driving it to work.

Good job!! That really is a good looking machine. I love the big yachts from the past. As far as im concerned, they represent our automotive history far more than some stupid muscle car ever could. Thanks for taking care of that old girl, and thanks for letting us tag along

[@delmontindustriesltd7501]

Thank you. And I agree. Muscle cars are cool, but these are what drove the American family. The old girl still needs some work, but at least she is on the road again. Thanks for watching!

When I was reallly small, in the 70's, we had a 68 Olds Delta 88 convertible, almost the same interior and exterior colors as the car in this video. Really nostalgic seeing these cars.

So glad to see you and one of your cars back in a video. Love hearing those 60s Olds crank. ❤ Pump pump pump! ❤

Thanks buddy. Been very busy with work, etc. It's been tough finding time a d staying motivated to record stuff. Hope to try the other Delmont here in a few weeks.

@@delmontindustriesltd7501I totally understand. What kind of work are you doing now? I retired 2 years ago but I’m busier now than when I was working. 😮

[@nickleveck8775]

​@@floodedcaddyI'm working at an auto parts distributor selling high performance auto parts across the world. I'm in international sales. Most of my customers are in Canada but I have a few in Australia and New Zealand.

@@nickleveck8775 That sounds really interesting. I like anything with an international flair.
