RE: [DML] the width of the delorean



I skimmed the DeLorean Gold Portfolio quickly and find that all the reprints
of various auto magazine writeups show the width of the D as 73 inches,
except for a couple that showed the 78.3 width. The 73 is closer to
correct....a couple show it as 72.1. You are nitpicking when you get into
tenths of an inch. Also maybe of interest is that you can park next to
another car or wall within 11 inches and still open the doors. (I wouldn't
recommend being QUITE that close though!!) I am sure my location in our
garage is unique and this feature works perfectly for my situation......We
have an unusually narrow two car garage and we must park both cars against
the walls as close as possible, and "debark" to the center of the
garage.....no way could I climb over the "hump"..The D is parked on the
left side and I can open the door and get out and sidle along the car to go
on out. Also another one of a kind probably, is that my ceiling in that
area is exactly 6 feet 1 inch.....I cut a hole in the ceiling in the two
places, to allow the rear view mirrors to extend up to full height! The
next person who buys this house will go crazy trying to figure why those
"holes" are there!! Ho Ho.
