Three 737-800s and four MD-80s are not yet painted in the current livery. One of the 737s is being painted this week and two of the MD-80s are being painted this week. That leaves just four older livery in service. One of those will be painted SkyTeam!!
Here are the four remaining old livery
N3765
N37700
N926DL
N970DL

Would be cool to see the SkyTeam paint on something other than the 767 or 757 which we never see. Any idea on the tail # for it?

Yes, one knows. However, it is not yet "public" information. I do not want to get in trouble...

The last older livery scheduled service should be DAL1135/06APR RDU-ATL. This should be operated by N970DL.

As usual, there are some changes to the above information. N970DL and N37700 are to be flying for a few more days wearing the older livery. N926DL and N3765 are in the paint shop.

OOPS!!! N37700 is out of the paint shop. Ergo, only N970DL remains flying in the older livery...flying April 6, 7, and 8.

It is finished. N970DL has made its last flight wearing the older livery...DL1259/07APR PIT-ATL. This is the last Delta Air Lines older livery service.
At this time N121DE and N124DE (older livery) are undergoing maintenance after storage. These airplanes will likely be painted in the current livery before returning to service. There are more older livery airplanes stored and it is unknown if they will return to service wearing the older livery.
