The two parts cars that I have were stolen. Not by me, but back in 1982 when the company went out of business. They were stolen at the same time from the same lot. The thiefs raced around a little and then crashed one, and lit the other on fire. They got into the one they crashed by using a crowbar on the door and pulling the stainless away from the window. The other had the window smashed out. Ironicly, they had the key to turn the car on...and no...they weren't early '81s...they were '82s. Can someone say "insurance fraud". Anyway, there's my first hand of 2 deloreans getting stolen.
