1k: Pegs The Cinnabarometer: 1980 Oldsmobile Holiday 88 Coupe

Oldsmobile, you have been missed.  It has been 10 years since GM pulled the feeding tube out of the brand founded in 1897 by Ransom E. Olds.  At the time of its passing, Oldsmobile was but a frail shadow of a car company and offered badge engineered versions of GM mid level junk -- and in truth, no one misses the Alero, Intrigue, Aurora or Bravada.  But it hadn't always been that way; there was a time when Oldsmobile was king...and 1980 was certainly not that time, but it didn't stop them from making a car that might just be worth a spot in your garage carport driveway street. Find this 1980 Oldsmobile Holiday 88 Coupe currently bidding for $405 reserve-not-met with 5 days to go on eBay, located in Bonham, TX.  Tip from Oldsmobuick.

10k: 455-V8 4-Spd: 1962 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 Convertible

The Oldsmobile 88 was a full sized car sold by General Motors in a stunning 50 year production history that started in in the wake of World War II and ended just before Y2K.  The fifth generation Olds 88 was built on GM's B-body platform that included big sedans like the Chevrolet Bel Air\Impala, Buick LeSabre\Invicta\Wildcat, and Pontiac Parisienne\Catalina\Laurentian\Bonneville.  Today, the Olds 88 makes a great classic cruiser without breaking the bank, even in big-block convertible form. Find this 1962 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 Convertible offered for $10,500 near Seattle, WA via craigslist.  Tip from FuelTruck.

5k: Slippery When Wet: 1967 Oldsmobile Delmont 88

Mention the phrase Chappaquiddick to anyone old enough to have trouble with touchscreens and they will recall it is the place where Ted Kennedy drove his Oldsmobile Delmont 88 into a pond and a young lady tragically lost her life.  Youngsters will confuse it with the game of Chappaquidditch, which is a sport played by young wizards and witches at Hogwarts Academy and is won when someone catches the Golden Snitch or causes a cheerleader from the opposing team to drown.  Regardless, if you want to drive around like an Ivy League elite playboy, ditch the chauffeur at the party and cruise around this 1967 Oldsmobile Delmont 88 offered for $5,400 in SF Valley, CA via craigslist.
