1969 Oldmobile Delta 88 Royale
This was the seventh generation of the Oldsmobile 88 (see earlier post). The body styles offered were: 2-door hardtop; 2-door convertible; 4-door hardtop and 4-door sedan. The Royale trim appeared on a top-line Holiday coupe and came standard with a more luxurious interior featuring a notchback vinyl upholstered bench seat with armrest or Strato bucket seats with optional center console.
The standard engine was a 350 cu in (5.7 L) V8 with a 455 cu in (7.5 L) V8 option. Transmission was 3-speed automatic.
The "bold and the beautiful" headline in this ad was later used for the title of a Los Angeles TV Soap Opera which began in March 1987 and is still being produced, in fact the only such soap still in production in the US.
