How I came to know of the DeLorean is of my friend Chris Anstett about 2 years ago walking to school. We had been talking about cars, and he started talking about that his Uncle, Chuck worked on a DeLorean, he described the car to me and I was amazed, next week I went down to the local library to look for books, and found a copy of Stainless Steel Illusion, and that has started my life-long DeLorean obsession. Now 2 years later I am 13, and have started an "Amateur" DeLorean web page that will soon be ready.
