Yeah, so I bought a new car. First new car in my life, and its great. Couldnt get olds anymore, so I bought a Dodge Charger. Its soooooo sweet. I'll get a picture of it soon, it just looks amazing.

Its a HUGE car too! Noteably larger than my mom's '05 grand prix, which is classed as a full sized sedan. Room for at least 5 dead hookers in the trunk. Boston Acoustics sound system kicks the pants off the stereo in my delta... Stock systems are really good these days.

I am keeping my '88 olds, as there is nothing wrong with it, and I just cant get rid of my delta. Been a great car. I will be parting what I want from the '91 delta88 and likely scrapping the rest. (Anyone looking for parts for a '91 royale?) Parking room is starting to get tight with 3 cars.

I hope you bought the real charger with the v8, not the "high output" V6.

You mean, you hope I suffer from high gas prices... ;-) Nope, bought the 3.5L, it has an amazing amount of jam for a V6. Gas milage was my main concern, price of the vehicle my second. The 8 cyl was an extra $6000 over what I paid. The V6 will do just fine :-D

There's one around here too, might even be two, not sure. If you wanted good gas milage you should've bought the yarris. You just can;t drive a charger with a V6. :(

88, save me the drivers side mirror, drivers side headlight (I can deal with the high beam on the opposite side) and radiator possibly. Don't exactly know when I can get the $$, but I might be interested in those parts.

Thanks guys, the new cars driving nice. A real joy to have brand new for once.x Still salute the olds when I walk by her though.

87delta, the rad would be different from the 3800, would it not? Besides which, the rad might be a bit more shipping $ than possibly fixing your current rad. I can definately send the light and mirror(s). They're power mirrors on that car. They're blue also, so you'll have to paint. We can look into it if you're interested... PM me.
