1968 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Custom Hardtop For consignment, a 1968 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Custom hardtop with a title verified 35,380 actual miles and packing a 455 cuber under the hood. Why "88?" "Sometime around 1940, Oldsmobile began using 60, 70 and 90 as series designations. They offered both inline flathead six and eight cylinder engines, and either engine could be installed in any series. Hence, a series 60 with a six cylinder engine was a 66, with an eight it was a 68. The 88 came around in late 1949 when they dropped the new Rocket V8 engine from the Ninety-Eight into the lighter series 70 car, then 80 series." Thx to aaca.
