Hi,
I'm in the process of restoring my Delta HF turbo which was bought new from Pebley Beach in Swindon when it used to be a Lancia dealership. I had to replace the rear windscreen as the original was damaged which had the Pebley Beach sticker attached to. So I was wondering if anyone has an image of the sticker that Pebley Beach put on the rear windscreens of the cars that they sold? I contacted the dealership but unfortunately they had cleared out all their old stock years ago. I know it's a long shot but any information / images would be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Rob

I'm willing to make tea if that helps But I did try and find some old pebley beach images on google but no luck. What you want is some period pictures which may have a rear window shot that contains one ... ?

I have looked back at my old photos (on the computer) to see if I have a photo of a Pebley Beach window sticker, but it was usually the first thing I would take out of any new car I bought from them. I might have some photos taken in their showroom, but at the moment they are stored at the back of a very large cupboard and I don't plan to spend the day necessary to find them just now. I will let you know if I do discover them. Ade.

Hi Rob
What is your reg. no? I used to own a Martini HF Turbo (E97WHR) that also came from Pebley Beach. Sadly, long since scrapped by the next owner after me. I used to take it to Pebley Beach for servicing and a salesman informed me one day that my car was once the demonstrator and he used it to travel to work and back daily during that time. I may have some old photo's buried in the loft but lord only knows when I'll have time to look them out. I will try for the next Bristol meet.
Regards
Ian
P.S. Can we have some pics of your work in progress?

Thanks for your replies guys but I don't want you spending hours looking through your old photos as I'm sure you have far better ways of spending your free time . I've had a look through the paperwork that I keep for the Delta & found some old Pebley Beach headed reciepts so I had a go at making my own (with the help of my daughter) which look pretty good. The reg of my Delta Ian is E44 FAP, I'll have a go at putting some photos on but be warned some of the images are NOT for the faint of heart! . Cheers, Rob

Wow Rob,
Thanks for the pics, quite a project. Are you going to make your own repair panels or does someone remanufacture the common rusty bits?

Hi Ian,
It's been a bit of a mixture really. I've fabricated a lot of the repair sections as it's so hard or very expensive to get hold of body panels. I did buy a hand made repair section for the back edge of the roof panel as it is quite tricky to make & that cost £250! Also I've managed to cut sections from a scrap Delta which has saved me a lot of work. The last major bodywork job is fitting & welding the replacement roof panel to the shell which I'm in the process of doing at the moment.
Cheers, Rob

Sorry this is picture of a picture but you get the idea. This was taken in Jan 1994 on a car for sale in Pebley Beach (18th Birthday treat - dealer took me out in an EVO1 K480RLO dealer demo car). I have looked though the photos taken on that day and none of the cars had a window sticker (Brand new and second hand) however they do have the dealer details on number plate front and rear. https://c6.staticflickr.com/8/7262/27945510365_db2bde7eb4_z.jpg, on Flickr Just to clarify, there is the Lancia shield, PEBLEY BEACH WROUGHTON SWINDON 0793-82235 SHELL Symbol (Petrol company) Hope it helps and if you want any more info I will try and help out. Regards Dermis

Thanks for the picture Dermis I appreciate you having a look through your photos. I think the one's that I've mocked up are probably similar to the original. Cheers, Rob
