Kieran - Not to put you off a DeLorean, but you may want to consider starting with a more conventional car to learn the ins and outs of automotive resoration. An older MG, a Lotus Elan (the original one, not the M100), a Triumph, all would be less expensive to get into, and, most importantly, all have very active support clubs most everywhere that are great resources for local assistance. Should you decide auto mechanics are not for you, a ready market exists to pick up on your project. That said, if you have your heart set on a DeLorean, required documentation is the parts manual, the service guide, and reprints of the service bulletins, all of which are available from the usual parts vendors. You might want to pick up How to Understand, Service and Modify Bosch Fuel Injection & Engine Management by Charles O. Probst (ISBN 0-8376-0300-5) or How to Tune and Modify Bosch Fuel Injection by Ben Watson (ISBN 0-87938-570-7). Books on automotive electrical systems, brake systems, and general auto repair would be handy, also. I like Carroll Smith's * to Win (Tune, Engineer, etc.) series of books for background knowledge and philosophy, but they are more focused on auto racing than resotration.

I'm not sure of the best way to go about this... should I be looking in the US and have it shipped to the UK? or is there any chance of finding such a project in the UK. ... I have very little mechanical experience so I would be learning on the job, can you give me any advice as to the best books to buy to help with the restoration.
