OMG!
I totally forgot about this when I went back to Texas last month for my Grandmothers funeral. I guess Houston is a bit far from Denton for a road trip... But I would still have loved to see the dealership. Zach |

I live no more than 2 miles form the Florida Delorean shop in Bonita Springs, like my compadre in Ft. Myers said, they always have 8 of the silver beasts sitting out. They have also hosted local PCA Breakfast Club events. The site is rather strange sitting on a major road leading to the Gulf of Mexico in a nice building and all of a sudden it's the land of brushed Stainelss Steel finish....its a very interesting place.
Jakes right they need more horsepower!!! Vysoc |

I keep thinking the Delorean would be a really cool car to convert to electric. I've got tentative buy-in from my CFO (wife) for this as the next car to convert. (My electric 914 project is finally going to get batteries in the next month or so). Peter, There is one Electric Delorean. Can't wait to see your 914ev on the road. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) By the way, there is a guy that faithfully recreated BTTF's Delorean in every detail. He was in the Sunland 4th of July Parade this year. Here're a couple of photos I took: |

Stop this.....now. I was around when they built these cars. If I remember correctly the weight ratio is somewhere around 60/40, sixty to the rear. They were piles O' _ _ _ _. This is why today one can buy a used Delorean for little money. They will never be worth the hipe then or now.

I love how they come in so many cool colors. You can get any shade of stainless under the sun. John |

(IMG:http://farm1.static.flickr.com/25/57347411_0a71d4f353.jpg) See, this is 1 of the 4 factory painted Deloreans. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bootyshake.gif) Zach |

I'd like to see a DMC lowered with a nice suspension, 18"-19" BBS's and an LS1 V8 stuffed in there. Then I'd REALLY want one. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Best i could do was lower it and put on some BBS LM's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (the paint job wasn't PS'd):(IMG:http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h88/danlo830/DMCwithBBS.jpg) |
