Good price for a set of parts?
Hey folks,
I've bumped into someone parting a '72 delta 88 royale, and I asked for all the internal courtesy lenses + housings, plus the hood release handle, and the taillights. Guy wants $350 for everything. Haven't seen any pics yet, but I'm going to ask for some because I wanna make sure stuff isn't pitted. Is this a fair price? So far I wasn't very successful in finding the internal lights and tails for this car, but haven't really looked hard for it...
Thanks,
Dante

That price sounds high unless he's selling you the whole car. The courtesy light harness is very similar to the A body one and is not that expensive - around 25.00. Tail lights? Maybe 30 - 35 / side (high retail - 60/side) if in good shape. Check this link: Olds lights and Trim
What lenses are you talking about? Dome light and sail panel? Check with Eric Jensen (jensenracing77) or Scott Winn (oldspackrat). They may have the parts you're looking for at a much better price.

If you have the front ashtray and seat belt holders (top outer side of seat back), please give AZ455 a pm and let him know? He told me he was looking for that stuff a while back.

I agree with the other guys that the prices are high. But getting harder to find. If nsnarsk65cutlass doesn't have what you need, would you post pictures of your light fixtures so we can try to match the lenses for you?
