Got bored and went to the junkyard and scored some goodies. Never did get what I wanted. There was 7 other Deltas from 86-89, and 30 other late 80's H bodies.

Emblems... they are slightly worn, but better then what I had.

New front one

*Warning, Rice Ahead!*


Annnndd my ghetto luggage rack/spoiler. Picked it off of a 89 Royale B.

I like it personally. It isn't screwed on yet, gonna do that next weekend.

Total is $40. Not bad, but I still got ripped off. What do you expect for a junkyard owned by a buncha ex-convics. :lol:


And 88Delta88, there was like 5 or 6 good light/grill combos for your car! :lol:

The emblems have slight wear on them, but it's better then the none I started out with. The luggage rack, everybody has different opinions on. I like it, so it goes on. It's in great condition, so once cleaned up it will look great. :)

Thanks! Since I've got most of it fixed, it will stay for a while. Thanks to all who convinced me to keep it. And if it wasn't for my father, I'd never look this good.


Oh yeah, new front emblem put on. I need a new hood one now. Still, much better then the faded one. :wink:

Oh, for sure. I needed a switch for my front passenger window, easily found one off a Buick H-Body. It's silver, but no biggie. It works and when im bored it will give me something to do by painting it. There were TONS (20 or so) of Series I 3800's I'm tempted to pick-up and re-build one to pop in the Delta.

87, I like the luggage rack too. I always thought about sourcing one for my car, but was too lazy to do so. Lookin good as always!

And I did end up finding a light, and a grille for the passenger side. Looks like new again :-)

If you ever do get a luggage rack/spoiler, make sure you get the chrome one :wink:

And thanks, I like to keep her clean! 8-)
