Ken,
I was absolutely shocked (and mad) when I saw your email. I recently
have had some dealings with George Barris regarding my Delorean Time
Machine. He wanted to rent it so that he could claim that it was THE
Back to the Future Delorean.
He claimed he had "purchased" the rights to make such as claim from
Universal Studios. I refused to cooperate in any such advertising unless
he showed me proof of his claim.
THe story then changed that he bought one of the original ABC cars from
Jay Orberg (who was involved in the original BTTF cars) but it caught on
fire and was destroyed. Again, I wanted proof of this and none was
provided.
George then threatened me and said if he ever saw my car at a show he
would tell the show promoters that my car was a fake and not the Back to
the Future Car. !! I said fine because I have never claimed that it is.
(As you know, Mine is much better!!1 :-D )
Unfortunately, George Barris is very wealthly and has lots of
connections. If he claims to have made a movie car most people believe
him. It is just a shame the Monster Garage fell for his false claims.
