[DML] Re: Canadian Serial Numbers

["d_rex_2002" <rich@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mike and others,

I know this topic has come up a few times and the Canadian D Club
has done a good job of documenting many of the Canadian spec cars.

>From my understanding, there are about 100 Canadian spec DeLoreans
built and/or re-tagged during August 1982 and October 1982.

Although the Canadian spec DeLoreans are in the 17xxx series, they
start about 17050 and run through about 17149 (+/- a few more).

I have personally inspected a few early 17xxx series DeLoreans and
all I have seen through VIN.1703x are US spec (not metric).

I also own VIN.17063 which is a Canadian spec car, but is currently
not stock, running with a Buick Grand National 3.8L Turbo V6 engine.

I'm sure others may comment on this topic as well with more details.

Note: I have also seen a few 16xxx series DeLoreans with metric
instrument clusters and/or radio interference certification tags.

Later,
Rich W.
