ragtop delmont

Does anyone still offer a wiper switch for a 68 Delmont, would the 68 Cutlass/442 wiper switch be the same.
Thanks Dennis !

Welcome aboard

I'm not a Delmont guru but hang in there someone will be right with you.

Someone will see this and pipe in with a idea for you

So it's been 3 and half years. No answer. Anyone offer the switch?

Apparently not.

Nothing like this is made new. But his idea of taking parts from another switch could work. I needed to repair the wiper switch on a '64 Jetstar 88 I once owned. I bought a switch off of a junkyard, later-year Vista Cruiser and cannibalized it for parts to repair mine. It worked fine.

I might have one.. I can't remember if I removed it before I scrapped the car. I'll check tomorrow.

I doubt it will help much, seeing as how, of the OP's two total posts, one was the one that started this thread in 2009, and the other was a request for a rear bumper in 2010, to which Radioburningchrome replied asking about his location, and never received an answer.

I agree with Jaunty, though - even when they changed the outside appearance of these switches, the actual mechanism was often the same, and a switch from a different year and model may provide a framework for a repair.

If Delta doesn't have what you need, tell me if this will fit?

Sir_Charles

I'm going to have to pull mine tomorrow and see if it will fit. I'll keep everyone posted, thanks guys!

Sir_Charles

Would you have the plastic inserts that go behind the *****?

Paladin31

Do you mean the retainer ring/threaded nut?

Sir_Charles

Yeah, there's one also for the headlight switch. Do you have both? I'm missing the one on my wipers and I have a cracked light switch one.

Paladin31

Yup, a duo

Sir_Charles

If you're interested in parting with them and possibly the switch I could give them a nice warm home.

Work got in the way today so I'll pull the switch tomorrow after I pull some disc brakes at the junk yard.

Paladin31

Would that be a nice neat package of the wiper & headlight switches & retainers?

Sir_Charles

No headlight switch, do you know the condition of the wiper switch? The retainers for sure.

Paladin31

Well I just put a meter on the switch, contacts worked after running them on/off a few times, could definitely use some contact cleaner but it did show continuity in wiper & washer functions, here are the retainers, look pretty nice to me.

Sir_Charles

Pm me and lets talk price.
