Robert and all who have had this idea, What a great idea. Yes, the delorean should not be purchased as an investment. But imaging if you will(never going to happen,But) you are selling your car and this guy just loves the "D" but has never worked on one or does not "Trust" the local machanics. As part of your handing over documents you give him a book on what can/will go wrong and the basic steps to fix and or look for for salutions. This small book would have saved me many hours of working on my car over the years and money since I was not always near a "D" machanic. It does not need to be an end all for fixing the car but just a simple examples of what to look for if you have problems. It has already been mentioned that the manuels for the car are outdated and in some cases just simple wrong. To say that to metion these problems is bad for the car is like saying I do not need to balance my checkbook since I know how much money I spent and how much went in. You still need to know where you stand! Ever car has flaws, some more than others. If most if not all the common flaws for a vehicle have been identified and recorded, it makes owning the car that much easier and better for all concerned. The suppliers of parts and machanics for our cars have made a living doing just that. Which is why we take them to them. For profesional advise and help. As was mentioned before, they have all taken great pains to put out the best information that they have and the best parts that are affordable. My 2 cents for what its worth!
