Delphi is helping to create a dream come true for one lucky
technician this year with its “Win the Delphi Dream Shop”
giveaway. The giveaway, to be announced at the Automotive
Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) in November 2011, will
provide one technician Delphi parts, tools, equipment and
training to help them upgrade their current shop or build
their own Dream Shop.
The prize is part of Delphi’s third-annual Destination: Victory Lane.
The Delphi Dream Shop giveaway includes electronic equipment

a high-performance laptop with shop management software, A/C

pound capacity, transmission jack, compressor and air tools,
two-ton service jack, engine lift, tire changer and balancer,

cooling, and Diesel product portfolio. Whether a Ford, Toyota,
Volkswagen or Chrysler, Delphi’s wide import and domestic
application coverage includes fuel pumps for three out of four
