I just recently purchased this vehicle just this past Friday. I would like to learn more about the motor and actual vehicle. Its kinda hard because there are no forums for the Oldsmobiles that I could find. But what ever this is close enough.
Well I been hurting pretty bad lately with all the gas I have been using driving from school and back. So I did some searching for a daily driver.
A family friend/co-worker just happened to have a 1992 Oldsmobile 88 Royal 3.8L that he bought for his daughter. She disliked the car because it look too "Old people" looking. So I asked him would he like to get rid of it. He happily said yes. I said you would like to get rid of it cheap. He then said yeah $500-600.
So yesterday I finally had the funds. I only took $500 cash with me. When I talked to him I asked so how much did you want for?
He said how much do I have. I said $500 cash.
The next thing suprised me. He said ok let me get the title!
So thats my $500 daily driver/beater car.
Now the my Dakota should be seeing alot new mods coming its way!
1992 Oldsmobile 88 Royal
3.8L v6 (L27)
91,000 miles!
New tires
New brakes
New battery
Interior not rips/tears
No cracked windows
Cold AC
Warm Heater
Power windows
Power locks
Power seats
Owners:
1st owner was his grandma
2nd was my co-worker (1 month)
3rd Me!
Ok ok here are the pictures:
Future mods:
I just went and bought new plugs and wires today. I dunno when I'll put them in. Maybe tomorrow.
Shampoo interior. (smells a little like a dog)
Replace all bulbs around car. (A couple dont work)
Change oil.
Thats all I guess. Its a DD/Beater so I am not putting much money in it.
If anyone has any ideas give me a holler.
