I've been lurking about on this list for about a month now, but just want to take a moment to say THANKS to all of you who share so much useful information on this list, especially those of you who make a living from fixing DeLoreans and share that wisdom here. It is because of all of you that I felt comfortable in recently purchasing VIN #10715 from Jason in Washington. #10715 is a 5-speed with gray interior, and needs all those little things that a running 20-year old D desires: brakes, struts, steering rebuild, interior work, fascia painting, etc. But in general she's in good shape and I drive her a couple times a week. I'm learning a lot from everyone on this list and enjoy taking each little nugget out to my garage to see if this or that bit has been upgraded or needs to be. So, THANKS! ---Mark -- Mark DeLoura http://www.satori.org/ Oakland, CA USA
