1973 Oldsmobile Eighty-Eight Base Additional Info:

I am the 3rd owner of this car I bought in 2014 and started doing a few things then lost time too many other projects. 2nd owner bought in 1975 and somewhere along the line had it repainted original color (not the best paint job) and possibly had the vinyl top taken off and painted it beige. I put new double timing chain, high flow oil pump, water pump and new valve covers seals. I also have to go with it brand new electronic ignition distributor and wires and a rebuilt turbo 400 transmission with shift kit. Car runs good, transmission is good, really good brakes and doesnt smoke. Interior only has the 2 little rips on drivers side seat, 2 cracks in dash and of course the normal steering wheel plastic warpage. Water must have found a way inside as carpet was outstanding when I bought it but I guess some window seals allowed water to get in and stain the carpet. Radio works when it wants too, AC not working, all other option like power trunk work. Good glass. Normal olds rust in rear 1/4's and some surface rust present. Car is driveable but tires are old so suggest it be hauled away and carb needs to be rebuilt as 4 barrel no operating. Car has good bones for either a restore or rodded or slam it to the ground. Car sold as is no warranty. Please see video of car running at youtube https://youtu.be/8F5wsLn76EQ and https://youtu.be/CXoD3T6LD3s Car is your normal boat but will still get up and go, had state trooper clock me at 128 MPH but that wasnt planned. Please feel free to ask any questions. Thank you
