r/Oldsmobile

I bought a '65 Delta 88 a couple years ago, very much a project car, but have never been able to get the glove box open. I can lock and unlock it, push the button to open it, but the latch just doesn't release. Is there a secret to getting them open?

She cleans up nice

Replaced the steering rack, reworked the stock shifter to work better with the 6 speed manual transmission, installed a new in box period correct Audiovox stereo specifically meant for the GM X body, and had to take the fuel tank to the radiator shop and find a spot that was leaking slow enough it didn't actually drip but was leaving a stain trail on the bottom of the tank. Got that fixed and reinstalled.. I still have to deal with bleeding the brakes.

So I lost my TL that I put a lot of blood sweat and tears in. I’m looking for something else but I’m also usually on bullshit so I want something weird. Are 96 cutlass Cierra’s pieces of shit? Mainly leaning away from it because it’s already been touched to the gills but it’s also clearly the sellers “baby”

I know how bad this engine was at the start, but for anyone that actually had a later year diesel V8, was it a somewhat decent engine like the Northstar in its later years?

(not a for-sale post!! seeking advice)

CALLING ALL COLLECTORS/MECHANICS!! i’ve had this ‘98 aurora since about 2022, She’s been my pride and joy but has officially become too much of a pain to take care of, and won’t be moving with me out of state. i’m not sure where to go or how to find the right crowd to sell to, any tips/tricks/communities i can try?? thought i’d ask the people that actually know things about Oldsmobiles :)

i’m really sad to see this beauty go. i’d love it if she found a new place / person to call home !! any advice is appreciated
