Topless '73 Delta 88

Topless7388 · January 16th, 2007, 04:58 PM

I have purchased a 1973 Delta 88 convertible. This car is a LEAD SLED as I am sure you all know. It is a pretty nice example. Minimal rust and fairly original, 350 and all of the accessories work with the exception of the power window relay. I am going to need a good source for that, suggestions? Where can I find production numbers? I recently quit racing and wanted a big sled to ride around in with the wife and kids. We had a 1969 Delta 88 four door when I was a kid and I loved the way that car felt. It was a big block 455, poop brown with a black vinyl top. Ugly as a mud fence but a nice ride. I am looking forward to getting into my new driving project and having fun with it. I am sure I will use this forum frequently for vital info.

Its a place not too far from you in DC called Rufus Auto Restoration. You can call information to get the phone number. Its in Northeast DC on Bladensburg Road. They can get a lot of parts for you that you may need or want. Also, try JCWhitney.
