Another New Delta Owner

[AJC]

Hi,

 

I've recently purchased a Delta S-Series.

 

I've been looking for a while.  I live in Cornwall and there seem to be very few Deltas down in the South-West.

 

I'd almost given up and this one popped up at an auction in Bruntingthorpe.  It was the only S-Series I'd seen for sale so I went for it.

 

I'm into Italian cars, I've got a couple of Alfas and a Lancia MonteCarlo so this one will be given the full Lancia treatment soon.

 

Cheers

 

Andrew

Great work Tim - If I would've known I would have got the twin-pipe box look - next time.............

Looks great Tim! That sits nicely even without the bumper cut out.

Thanks, I'm pleased with the result. I was concerned there might be a bit of a boy-racer fart-box sound, but it's very subtle. New rear hanger arrived today, so I shall fit that over the weekend.

 

All the Deltas I see with the cut-out seem to have the exhaust sitting very low, almost making the cut-out pointless. There's a silver one near me in Helensburgh and I noticed on that one first. Anyone else noticed it?

Does look like that its not totally necessary from OE - although probably looks better - Not sure why it appears they deliberately went to the trouble of hiding the exhaust on non-Limited/S cars but Frank Stephenson probably thought it ruined the line of the rear.
