It is MY understanding (as the myth goes) that 4 or 5 cars were sent to DeLorean Cadillac in Cleveland to "test" paint a few cars there. As I remember, there was one of these "test" cars at the show in Cleveland. I don't remember what year it was.... it sticks in my mind that it was a maroon color of some sort.... While I do believe there were none that left Dunmurry painted, I think DeLorean Cadillac scored some R & D $$$ to paint a few cars from Brother JZD. Just my 2 cents worth... John Curry 83 D 15943
