Here's a 1972 Oldsmobile 442 W-30. I'd like to add that I encourage the posting of other types of Oldsmobiles on this thread besides muscle cars.

Here are some old ones. A 1901 model, and a 1905 model. The '05 one is at the Suffolk County Historical Society Museum.

Here's a 1973 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser station wagon! :D

http://www.stationwagon.com/gallery/pictures/1973_Oldsmobile_Custom_Cruiser.jpg

Looks like a hearse with the tailfins and rear wheel well skirts, no? :eek:

With Oldsmobile gone and with SUV's the new family haulers, this car represents two things you'll see a lot less of soon - Oldsmobiles and station wagons! :lol:

Very nice '72 Olds 442! If I was driving that, it would be hard for me to resist lighting the tires!

And that nice, big wagon looks nice, too. I'd much rather have that than a modern SUV. For one thing, the wagons had a better ride.

Here's another car. This time, it's a Rocket 88 from Oldsmobile.

http://www.loti.com/1950_oldsmobile_88-2.jpg

That car was named after Jackie Brenston's very first rock & roll record back in 1951 called "Rocket 88".

Nothing says Oldsmobile like the Cutlass Supremes of the seventies and eighties! This Cutlass Supreme is a 1987 model.

http://www.leonardtemple.com/images/cutlass/cutlass_right.jpg

The Cutlass Supreme was Oldsmobile's entry in the intermediate "personal luxury" coupe market. For those of you too young to remember, personal luxury coupes were stylish-looking, conservative coupes for middle-aged suburbanites who wanted something less stodgy than a sedan but less flashy than a 2+2 sports coupe. Plus, they were for people who listened to Barry Manilow. :lol: The Cutlass Supreme pictured here has a slightly less conservative trim package. ;)

I wouldn't say station wagons are dead yet, but here's a Custom Cruiser I like much better -- the last ones from 1991 and 1992.

Now this is unusual. A 1937 Oldsmobile Panel Truck. Not a sedan delivery, but an actual panel truck, like the Chevy & GMC that the Suburban is based on.

There are people talking about reviving the Firebird/Trans Am as a Buick.

In the meantime, here's a 1972 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Coupe, which was my first car (although not a Royale).

The most reliable vehicle I ever had was a 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlas Cierra Brougham, which I got when I was 16. I loved it because it always ran, even on the coldest winter nights, even in heavy snow, in the Midwest. It rarely needed maintenance, drove easy, and was very inexpensive when I bought it. When I was a kid, I delivered pizzas in that car, and it very quickly paid for itself, even with me making minimum wage in those days (plus tips).

It looked like this (not actually my car):

Sadly, it was totaled by a drunk driver in 1994. RIP, old girl. RIP.
