Project DeLorean Steve is on the right track. Every year since 1991 I have taken a minimum of 3 and a maximum of 6 long distance trips in my DeLorean. By long distance I mean in excess of 2000 miles round trip. My emergency kit consists of a small set of metric tools, two belts and my AAA card. In those 14 years I have used the belts twice and the AAA card once. Miles traveled in those 14 years exceeds 100,000. The DeLorean is an extremely reliable car if maintained. Yes, I know that finding an appropriate part on the road might be a bit difficult, but trying to figure out in advacne which one is going to fail is even more difficult. Early on, I met an "expert" from the DOA who shared his kit with us as we attended a DOA event. By the time you have the kit completed, there isn't room for luggage! I do always carry the DeLorean Owners Directory, the Workshop Manual and the Parts Manual. In those I have recorded the numbers of all of the major DeLorean Vendors. Guys, I think many of you worry way to much. It isn't a dream if you are afraid to drive it. Dick Ryan VIN 16867 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
