Jake didn't say it here, but he pretty much followed his own advice. For about the last 3-4 years I saw Jake at every possible national DeLorean event. While in college he followed the list, hung out with local and not-so-local owners (including fixing cars!), and was always the guy in the white Pontiac with license "NOT A DMC". After graduation and what seemed like (to me) about a month of employment and a bunch of shopping, he went out and bought the perfect (for him) DeLorean at the right price. A real advantage he has is that, with 3- 4 years background, he knew exactly what he wanted, can fix most things that go wrong, and more important knew what not to buy. And what the risks were in buying a car as early in production as #1063!
