RE: [DMCForum] VIN numbers and cruise control

["Timnagin" <timnagin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Maybe the guy who said he had VIN 236 or whatever, actually had VIN 10236
since he heard other people refer to just the last three numbers.  Just a
thought.

There are aftermarket cruise control systems that do not use the magnetic
pickups but I don't know how well, or if at all, they can adapt to older
vehicles with a mechanical throttle.  My business partner has a lot pf
experience in this area and if anyone would like to know more I will find
out and post it here or to anyone individually who is interested.  I may
even be able to get a few of them from a vendor but I would have to check
on
that.

I have had several people at shows feed me lines of crap to just make
conversation.  I have never heard of any DeLoreans that were made with
VINs
lower than 500.  I think the ones before that didn't have VINs per se, but
I
really don't know.  I would be curious to hear under what circumstances he
bought this early car.  And I would be curious to know if it had toll
booth
windows or sliding windows, etc.  Oh well, this guy might show up again
next
year and we'll have another crack at him.

I want to know about cruise controls also.  As I mentioned before, your
car
as well as my junk chassis had aftermarket cruise controls installed.  I
was
wondering why those magnets were glued to the drive axels until someone
who
knew explained it to me.  Mine still has the pickup coil but most of the
magnets fell off.  Yours just had little glue spots left where magnets
once
were.
