1988 Delta 88 Holiday Special
Well, it's not really my car. It's my uncle's car, but if I don't tell you
about it, no one ever will. First off, he plans on restoring this piece of
crap. He has put so much bondo on it that if you hit it just right, the
car body would probably crack and fall apart. The engine, which he paid
$650 for, has caused nothing but problems. The accelerator wants to stick
when the car is not in gear. The interior looks like it was recovered from
a sunken naval ship. I don't think you could find it any uglier than
brown, water damaged, leather, cracked interior. Oh, and did I mention
that this thing looked like it was painted by a five year old. The
doghouse had to be replaced when he first got it, which I might add is now
two tone chameleon. The car was originally Navy blue (top half) and Sea
green (bottom half). The radiator had to be replaced because the old
doghouse was smashed in so bad that it bent the frame, bent the radiator,
and cracked the radiator. He was recently attempting to apply MORE bondo,
and it cracked, causing him to bash in an almost impossible to replace
window on the passenger side. If I could find a lake polluted enough to
ditch this car, I'd help him out, but I don't think his car is worthy of a
junkyard. He calls it a classic, I call it a classic piece of sh*t.
