The smoke from the front grill was super ridiculous. It got a laugh out of me. I am certain the Raising Hope producers intentionally put dust all over the DeLorean. The story required it to be a "diamond in the rough." The story would not have worked if the DeLorean was spotless and ran smoothly. Also, that DeLorean's interior and doors looked good. A realistic depiction of a "diamond in the rough" DeLorean would have shown drooping doors, sagging headliners, cracked seats and dashboard, and a broken cargo net. As shown, that DeLorean was simply dusty - - - and in need of a tune-up. - Mike Substelny VIN 1280 for nearly 30 years. --- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, Kevin Abato wrote: > > In the show, before they try to drive 88, Virgina mentioned the engine did > not sound like it was running right. > During the process to get to 88, the car appears to be having major issues > around 75mph, and Virginia screams that they are going to fly apart. > Then at the failed attempt to reach 88mph, the car appears to be > overheating/smoking.....from the FRONT GRILL when they stop. :( > > Most of this I can accept as creative writing for humor, etc. But at > least have the car cleaned!!! ------------------------------------ To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderators@xxxxxxxxxxx For more info on the list, tech articles, cars for sale see www.dmcnews.com To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnewsYahoo!
