thanks for the info guys! But come on Mathew, you gotta admit that the black and gold paint job was tight! Now, I plan to spend some time picking up bits and pieces here and there now and then. How long would you say it would take to build a Delorean from the ground up making slight modifications? Are there, say, other types of odometers you could get for the thing? Obviously using engine types from other vehicles such as porsche seem to work but what if you wanted to redesign the hood? What vehicle type would come close to matching the specs of a Delorean? Just curious yknow. ~Timothy Purvis [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
