while mulling over the Oldmobiles, a member showed me this several months ago. I circled it from high altitude, with genuine interest but not trying to mislead by flyiing in close, and decided on another path last month.
Slight detour here, but stlll a cop car ... sporta
Cars On Line.com 1970 Olds 88 Coupe - W33
Seller Description: Asking Price $ 12,500 OB
Oldsmobile 88 W33 Custom Coupe. For one year only, 1970, Oldsmobile produced a W-33 Delta 88 available in coupe, convertible or four-door. It was a special order only option that came with a 455 390 hp engine. If the person knew how to give the vehicle more performance, he could also order a B07 Police option, and that added a HD automatic transmission, special suspension and a boxed frame. This is the only fully documented W-33 Delta Custom coupe built. It is a California survivor. It runs and drives. It needs cosmetic restoration. You will not see another one like it for sale anywhere.
it finally sold. It wasnt to me.
It was out there along time, changed hands a lot among the "Rocket" crowd through the past decade it appears, but I dawdled and something else came along.
I cannot verify its pedigree ("one of one", etc.) with my own knowledge, but I do know directionally she was a "scarce" bird. W-33, B07 Coupe that wasn't cop? Just couldn't quite pull the trigger on it tho...
