[DML] Re: What to call the Scuba Show... Diving for Deloreans?

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The body dies have more of a historical significance than anything
else. Even if they could be recovered in usable condition there will
never be enough of a need to actually use them. When you consider what
the press time, set-up time, cost of materiel and everything else that
would go into it would cost it is not economically feasable for them
to be used. You can't just make a dozen panels and stop, you would
have to make many and who would put that kind of money into an
inventory item that would move so slow? It makes more sense to buy a
cheap, damaged Delorean and strip the panels off of it. Or repair a
damaged panel. BTW even damaged dies *can* be fixed up but it comes
down to economics. Unless you were going to make hundreds of panels it
just doesn't make sense. Panels can be made by hand. It is time
consuming (read expensive), but still cheaper than using the dies. In
fact that is how prototype parts are made before making production dies.
