[DMCForum] another De Lorean finds an owner story

["id" <ionicdesign@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I remember back when the De Loreans first came out i was only 10 years
old but i still remember the commercial on tv for the car, though i
never saw one in person till i was16 i fell in love with the car. The
way the doors opened, the body lines, the stainless steel, put it this
way the car was cool. When BTTF came out it even made me want the car
more, not because of the movie it was because of the car in the movie.

Two and 1/2 years ago i went on Ebay and was looking for a BTTF movie
poster and i saw the word "De Lorean", it was a actual car for sale. i
never thought i could ever afford one because i always thought they were
like $60,000 or something like that. From that day, two and 1/2 years
ago i researched them over and over, i became a member of the "Delorean
Midwest Connection" and met actual owners of De Loreans. my Wife and I
volunteered to do their newsletter because we both loved the car.

I met Rich W. at the first tech session i attended and he was doing a
"hover conversion" (A.K.A. frame swap) on a badly rusted De Lorean that
needed lots of help. i talked to him a little bit about the car and he
told me a lot more about the frames on the De Loreans. The Holiday
social for our club back in 2002 i attended and i talked to Rich a
little more about getting a project car from him and he had the perfect
car for me, a 1981 De Lorean VIN# 6683 that was an excellent daily
driver that needs some cosmetic work but mechanically sound. I had to
rush and sell my 1992 Mustang GT in the middle of January so i could
purchase the car from him because i didn't want to pass up a deal on the
De Lorean he had.

Today February 28th 11:30am Rich W. helped my Wife Melissa and I "Live
The Dream". I
would like to thank all of the members of "The De Lorean Midwest
Connection" for showing my Wife and I their cars and spending the time
to tell us a little about the De Lorean. I would like to thank the
members of the DMCForum for answering questions i have had about the car
and i especially would like to thank Rich W. for spending the time
emailing me about the car and giving me the chance to Live The Dream.

Thank you all
Mark & Melissa Valuch
VIN# 6683
