You must be kidding Sean, I bought new drums just a few years ago for mine. I will check around to see what I can find. Did you check all your local auto parts stores? Sometimes, the counter guy just isn't too swift...

what are your plans for the Delta? Restoration, Street Rod, Muscle car???? What engine and rear end ratio does your's have?

Mine came as a plain vanilla 455 2bbl TH400 with highway rear end gearing on a peg leg. Not too many performance packages on the Delta that year, although I did read about a police package that could be had on it that gave some heavy duty components on suspension/drivetrain and coolant. Apparently some agencies in the North Central used them as police cruiser....never saw one though.

As I said, I will check around here and post back.
