That and the vast market in communications,Back in the early/mid eighties,when I was searching for parts,there were very few avenues to search,to the point, I had to advertise to locate parts,today with the Web and places like Ebay,and sites like this one and others,it is just a matter of asking around or just waiting(eBay) or searching *worldwide* until the parts(s) surface.Basically it was a tight market for used parts(read: expensive)for a small business/individual to market their parts/wares,in the eighties/nineties.Today it is relatively inexpensive for a small business/individuals to sell their parts/wares,hence the Glut in Delorean parts/lower prices.In a nutshell the marketplace is wide open for all big,small, rich, or poor. cbl --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxx> wrote: > > Agreed - I'm sure at this time I could find 4 or 5 left front fenders > on the market if I really needed them.
