The best vehicle I ever owned was a 65 Olds, Delta 88. 425 Rocket V-8, 360 HP and I believe it was very conservatively rated.

My folks bought a 64 Olds 98, but it was late being delivered, so the dealer loaned us a 64 Starfire for a road trip. I felt too cool for words.

My dad brought a 1956 Olds Starfire 98 convertible when I was a teenager in the middle 60’s. I still remember family trips in that cruise mobile up in New England. Also drove it when I got old enough. It was respectfully fast. Especially with the “Super” passing gear in the automatic transmission. Best regards!
