The only things I can think about at all that would make it a rare car is that it is an 83 with black interior, and it is a late model. I have always thought that most of the 83's were grey. That is just my guess. The hood looks pretty standard for an 83, i.e. the DeLorean emblem on the hood, and no hood accent lines. As far as fixing that car up is concerned, it doesn't look too bad to me. Two new driver-side wheels and tires, new front fascia and all needed with it (headlights, etc.), new front wiring harness, new left front quarter panel, a little bit of underbody repair where the owner says it needs it. That doesn't sound like too bad a repair. Hell, maybe even I could do that. George __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
