Hello all,

Over the last few years I have worked hard to restore/modify my 1978 Delta 88, and now I am searching for special parts. What I am extremely interested in are the aluminum hood, hinges (and possibly trunk) off of the 77 Delta 88 Pace Car. If anyone is parting out a pace car, or by some miracle has a spare car hood and trunk deck laying around I would love to hear from you.

 

It may be obvious to say this, but check Ebay often for the parts you are looking for. Although I have never seen the aluminum hood or the steel rear trunk lid on Ebay, I have seen several great Pace Car parts cars there, with these parts, in the last 6 months. They've ranged in cost from $300 to $2000. Not a bad investment if you want to strip it for the parts you need, then perhaps sell the rest of the extra parts yourself on Ebay.

 

What part of the country are you located in?

I am currently located in Eau Claire WI. I would also like to mention I am always in search of parts in general for the Delta 88 including trim, body, mechanical, electrical and interior (camel beige). I would like to hear from anyone who has parts to sell etc. Thanks

A pic of the Delta.....I have since added SSIII rims, color matched :O)

 

Very nice!

 

On a completely different note, I have a standard rear in the Delta 88
(2.41) and in reading my bible (78 Shop manual) they make reference to being able to convert a standard rear end to a limited slip (page 4B-26)...does anyone out there have any firther information concerning this...know anything about it, or have any advice concerning it? Thanks much for any thoughts

I think with certain housings you can change the ring and pinion gears to convert to limited slip, yes.

 

I just heard of a guy parting out a 1977 Pace Car. Try Rick at 724-448-3105.
