[DMCForum] Re: parts

["erikgeerdink" <erikgeerdink@xxxxxxxxx>]

Greg,
I have thought about this.  But I do not have the time or the funds 
to rebuild this car.  One main reason I bought this parts car was to 
supply parts to my delorean.  I feel that with some work the frame 
will be salvageable.  My car needs a new frame.  Also other parts on 
the parts car will go well with my car.  
Rebuilding 1697 would be, essentially, exactly what Dave is doing 
with Project Vixen.  I would have to tear the car completely apart 
and rebuild from there.  

Erik
