Maindrian Pace Posted September 11, 2020 Very impressive conversion from the Delta 88, which has an almost entirely different body and different wheelbase. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geno Posted September 11, 2020 A '72 like this, I like the fancier grille versus the '71.? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
