Delta 88 parts

Hello, new to the forum. I picked up some parts at a garage sale recently. The guy I bought them from said they were for a Delta 88, but could not tell me what year, is there somewhere on the web I can go to identify parts?
I think I can figure out the emblems, but the steering wheel horn trim ring has me baffled, see pics. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

My guess is that they're not "Delta 88" parts, strictly speaking. They look like early '60s or earlier parts, especially the round "88" emblems, which I think date from the 1950s. The '50s Olds guys on here would likely know for sure.

The first year Olds used "Delta" in its 88 line-up was 1965, and I think all of your parts pre-date that year.

There is no website I'm aware of that can identify parts just on what they look like. Are there any part numbers on the backs of them? If so, post those, and someone might be able to identify them.

Thank you for your help, this information is helpful, will continue the search. Will see if the 50's guys might be able to help further.
