Fellow members, As the originator of this discussion, I must say that those that spoke up on this sad Ebay car have said all the right things that some cars are never going to be parts cars! It is one method of making our cars worth more in the long run by driving other cars into the grave with an early retirement. It is still sad to see any Delorean at a Auto-wrecker whatever condition it may be in. I can only picture the condition that the car could have been in if some owners would just have taken better care of their jewel of Ireland by doing a little preventative maintenance and abide to recalls on the car. Seeing burned-out Deloreans is just not right but it happens. If there are moth-balled Deloreans out there in Mini-Storages, once they come out of their coccoon, lets make sure that their headlights see highway again. I am all for it, guys!! Lets save those Deloreans that can still be transformed into a nice looking car. Many kids, that now have seen the DVD Back to the Future movies are going to look for a Delorean, just like I did back in 1985. We have to make sure that these cheaper cars are available to them. Most of us can not afford these 25k$$ cars with 2000 miles. Big deal, I have a Delorean to drive as much as I can during the dry season, not to look at in my garage and tell my friends my car has only 2000 miles on it and holding!! Cars are meant to be driven!! John 10250 BC, Canada --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Martin Gutkowski <webmaster@xxxx> wrote: > I agree wholeheartedly.
