Hello list, THIS IS LONG! This is my first month of ownership of my all time dream car. After all that is happpened I have no regrets of buying the car. DMCJoe as turned out to be an asset to me and has really been a great guy to talk with. I am now helping him out on coordinating a location for a service call in my hometown. The list has also been a fantastic source for information. I have been a list member for over 2 years and this list helped me decide that I did want the Delorean. I have met one local Delorean owner through the list, Sean Howely. He said if I ever needed is help just to let him know. All the Delorean owners I have talked to have been so helpful. The best part of owning the car is everyones reactions! I get all kinds of people coming in to see it and ask questions. The car sits in a showroom at work and people come in just to see it. They say that someone told them there was a Delorean in the showroom. Word spreads fast! Here is how my month has went so far. If anyone can answer any of the questions I have please email me off of the list or do so on the list if you think that it is info everyone should here: Week 1...Go to put gas in car to make sure it is full. The needle does not work, need tankzilla! Anyway, the gas overflows from the fuel pump. The boot was not securely clamped on and the gas pushed the fuel pump out of tank. Causing it not to start and had to have it towed. The tow truck comes, it is the same one that brought the car to me when I bought it, kinda embarrasing but who cares! A hole develops in the hi a/c hose going from condensor to compressor...so no freon, ugh. IT is hot here in E.TN. Get new hose 2 weeks later but still not on the car. Week 2...Car just sits waiting for repairs. When my mechanic did the work to the fuel pump and he clamped it back down he had it slightly twisted and then I had a humming noise and the car was starving for gas. He fixed it towards end of week. Week 3...Drive car out a little, but it is so dang hot! Show the car off to some friends. Replaced the door struts and luvre struts. So far the only money spent on parts, not bad, eh. Drive the car to my friends grandfathers house that is dying of cancer. They do not give him but about 4 weeks to live and when he found out I had a Delorean he wanted to see it. When I show up he goes out to see and I take him around the block.. His wife said that is the first time he had been out side in over a month. I felt like I made him feel better. Week 4...Get the a/c hose but has not been installed. I clean the stainless with Sheila Shine that a friend bought me. The car stands tall now! Tonight I would drive the car home and notice the speedo has stopped working! Just add to my list. Tonight is the first night that the car is sleeping at my house! Had to put the Cadillac outside. That is my rundown of the month. Starting miles is 455, now it has 514.9, but I drove it 4 miles w/o the speedo working. I am going to order fanzilla. When I use my power locks the car dies, so I guess that means lockzilla. I need tankzilla. My power windows don't work, so new regs. FIX SPEEDO! What do I do for that? How do I adjust hood? The radio doesn't work, needs new fuse? There is a rattle in pass area, neeed to find a fix. Need to turn rotors, is that possible? And would like to get new tires. Orginals are perfect with only 500 miles but just want performance of the Yoks. IF anyone can think of anything I need to know please let me know! Sorry it was soooo long!
