Sure, it's a Delta 88, but I love that it was ordered with the hi-compression 455, front and rear HD suspension, limited slip diff, HD cooling and trans cooler, etc.
Can't remember the last time I saw a '70 full-size Olds that wasn't a 4-door.

i have a friend in ST Louis with a white one...hit in the front..i went over and helped straighten the frame on it..loaded up about the same way..he decided to save it, instead of pinching the drive train and parting it..

What is the power output? Is it the same as a W30 engine?

its not a W30...it W30 like though...it is 390 HP..but its a big car..so rated diff than an A-body..you know the game
more like a standard 455 in a 442..big valved heads and a better camshaft..uses E heads instead of F..and a better carb jetting etc...true HP dual exhaust manifolds..its 10 horses less than a Toronado GT (W34)..but has the W33 better exhaust..because the Toro is the flagship...like Vette VS Camaro...
its a cop car...like an interceptor..or a hot turnpike cruiser
theres a huge following..and there a code for it.. B07..and they made way more than the guy is insinuating..most 4 doors..they lose their identity without paper work

I'm surprised there's not a trailer hitch bolted to the car. Usually that's what prompted folks to "order up" on the HP - they had something to pull around.

Interesting that there are no 455 emblems anywhere. Have they been removed?
