Commander 57 ◊ 2010-08-17 17:58	Don't those look like the Ninety-Eight style vertical taillamps?
HWJOE ◊ 2010-08-17 18:34	They appear to be amber over red whihc should be Eighty Eight
Commander 57 ◊ 2010-08-17 19:07	Hmmm.... OK. But wouldn't amber over red indicate an earlier model, say '86 or '87?
night cub ◊ 2010-08-17 19:15	I thought the all red taillights started in 1990.
Commander 57 ◊ 2010-08-17 19:23	No. Our neighbor across the street had an '89 Delta and I remember it had all red taillamp lenses. http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_images/3/3496/1361/33738180004_large.jpg -- Last edit: 2010-08-17 20:06:59

Commander 57 ◊ 2010-08-17 20:11	Did a quick photo search. The Delta went to all red taillamps with the 1989 models.
HWJOE ◊ 2010-08-17 20:19	Then I guess this is an 86-88 oldsmobile Delta 88, I thought the tailight switch was the other way around coming after 1990.
