[DML] DeLorean underwater?



Hi all,
I thought this might be an interesting story to put on the DML. I live in Chicago, but my home is in Huntsville, AL. Me and most of my friends in Huntsville are scuba divers, and rescue divers as well. My friend wrote me saying he had attended a training excercise on some river in Alabama where they practice rescuing (or removing) bodies from cars that have accidently gone into the river (seems to be a big problem in Alabama!). Anyway, the car used was an old buick that was randomly dropped into the water and it was left up to the divers to find it. Well, it seems that when the divers went down they found three cars....two extras that hadn't been put down! One was a toyota, and the other one couldn't be identified by any of the other divers (only a few young divers were under the water). My friend took a look and said it was in about 60ft of water, and half buried in the mud. He automatically recognized it as a Delorean! He said it looked like it had been down for years. The stainless was muddy with some slight surface pitting, but still in good condition. The tires and rear of the car were buried in the mud, but he said the car looked intact. He tried opening the door, but it was buried in the mud too far. He looked in side with a flashlight and said that the seats were missing or had rotted away. Other than that he said the car was complete. How the hell could this have happened? A stolen car perhaps? My friend wisely told his team that the car was really just an old stripped datsun or something, and sent them home. He wants to salvage the car at least for it's panels. Does anyone know anything about this car? Anyone lost one? My friend swears this is true. Why would he lie? Any info or feedback on this?
