In the 80's, I owned a car I loved more than any car I have ever loved. I owned it for 2 weeks, at a cost of $150, and couldn't afford to fix it and had to give it up. Go ahead and laugh, it was an Olds Delta 88. The nicest car I could ever afford, back then. I remember nothing other than it was blue, huge, and I loved it. Am now on a quest to get another one. Does anybody know how I can get a list from DMV of cars I've owned, so I can find out the exact car I had (probably almost 20 years ago). I am on their site, but am lost...

call who!? I owned it for 2 weeks and bought it used for $150! Only remember it was the first car I owned with electric windows and I thought it was the shit! (tho I know now, it was NOT, lol). But thinking i want it again, maybe that car was the key to hapiness...

My mom had one of those. It was an 87.
Absolutely a boat.... more like a ship, if my bad memory serves... not fast, and something along the lines of a big embarrassing cadillac... but cool just cause it was so dorky and ghetto (no offense intended). Thinking I might be able to make it cool, tho... a project car... Rocket 455...

You sir are very wrong, FACTORY, Buick has the Turbo T-type and the Grand National... I don't think you could constitute anyone who drives either of those old, as much as you could say they are car conesoirs(sp?) as for Olds... I had a 2 door '87 Cutlass that with a 350 and Nitrous in it, would haul balls to the wall... then i blew it up with a little to much spray,and a hispanic guy who wanted it for the interior bought it from me for $1000 :hammer:
In the 80's a guy that was a friend of a friend had a 1970-something Olds 88 or 98 too, can't remember which one. I cut the hood for him so he could put a functional scoop on it. Yeah, it was a Big ol' racing scoop. He had the car jacked up with air shocks and everything.
A loooonnnggg time ago I tried to locate one of my Dad's cars through the BMV and they said they only kept records for 10 years. So if you don't have a VIN you are probably out of luck.
