> The engine is missing the throttle-spool shield recall [SNIP] > The header bottle has been upgraded Good catches, Walt! Also not stock is the coolant auto-bleed hose (a la DMC Joe's "Overheat Protector" kit). The dash is interesting, too. It appears to have some stuck gauges, and all the warning lights are lit up. Don't get me wrong, the model is really great and the "problems" are minor. I've got the same passenger door issue that many others have, plus my gas pedal is bent over the top of the other pedals. But that stuff's minor considering how cool it is to finally have a little "Mini Me" of my DeLorean! Anybody want to make me a teeny tiny VIN plate with 6681 on it? :-) ___________________ Todd Masinelli VIN 6681 (Nov 81)
