    George, I saw this one on the CL this morning. Someone hacked the top motor out and left it in the trunk. I got it - it works. Also the inside pillar post moldings. It's a plain 88. A/C equipped. 98K mile 350 Rocket 2 bbl TH400 trans. Manual windows ,seat. No posi but has the Olds 12 bolt. Very nice top bows. No tilt column. Back seat, rear trim panels and sun visors are good. It is actually a decent car and still mostly complete. It shouldn't have been in a junkyard but these are not that popular.

    Forgot to mention, car has factory disc brakes on it...believe
    good for Olds models only due to different ball joints than Pontiac
    and Buick full size models.....was told that's the only difference.


    Mark,
    Sold the AC brkts and alt brkts already....email me direct please and
    will let you know when the next Olds 350 comes in w/brkts. I "think" the local
    yard has one coming in...74-75...will let you know.

    Tony,
    I have a spare motor and cylinders from another Olds 88 conv...email me direct.
