Sorry guys, I don't mean to interrupt. I don't say much on this forum,
but I will say this.
Usually with email it is very hard to tell the author's emotion, but it
would appear that 525 is highly agitated when he types his emails. If it
was a face to face conversation, I would construe that as shouting.
If you have to shout to make your point, you have no point to make.
Just a bit of wisdom I was taught long ago.

Subject: [DMCForum] Re: Deloreans on Ebay
No,The only claim I will give,is that I kept them "around" and in
good shape,(ie:from being in a field somewhere turning into rust)and
keeping/from becoming parts cars/and keeping a "few" more
Deloreans "around" for Future generations to enjoy.
Not non-running "stored" for Future USE,Non-running is a term used
for Junkers that have been abandoned outside for the elements to
DESTROY!!! In a sense the cars were in a state of suspended
anamation!!Also said as new, NOT new,as the majority of the cars were
stored indoors and covered since the 80's and unused,a BIG
difference,from a Delorean that was stored outside,uncovered,unused,I
once left a 9,000 mile Chevy Citation outside,(totaled parts car)to
the elements,in ten years,of sitting parked outside,it went from a
decent parts car,to scrap!! Just from the elements !!And it was
only "parked" It makes a BIG Difference how the car is stored.
I "think" I know something about he "history" of Deloreans after more
than 22years of Delorean Knowledge,and I STAND my ground on the Pre
Vins 00648,ALL were NEVER intended FOR PUBLIC use,HENSE pre-
production,production cars are cars who's intended use were TO BE
SOLD and USED by the General PUBLIC,IF they were "normal" "production
cars" where are they all???????? There are ONLY Dozen or so of cars
BEFORE vins 648, WHY? Because they were destroyed (or dismanteled)
used for parts ect ect,as the Factory NEVER classified THEM as
PRODUCTION cars.The Few that are around are ONLY around because,they
were STILL in use BY the FACTORY,as FACTORY CARS,(ie:
expermental,test vehicles,used by the big wigs,training Vehicles ect
ect)THEN, WHEN the Factory shut DOWN,The few that HAD NOT BEEN
Destroyed, became assets for Liquidation,to pay creditors,BUT had the
factory been in production,NO PRE Vin 648 cars would be around
today,as AGAIN,the factory classified them as,NON SELLABLE/NOT a
NORMAL production CAR.Maybe that clears things up about the Pre Vin
648 cars.??? Again if they were "normal" production cars,then PLEASE
account for the mysterious Disappeanence,of almost all the cars
BEFORE "648" WHERE ARE THEY? I can tell you-- Destroyed by the
factory,as NON-sellable/ not classified as a Normal Production car.
Hense PRE_PRODUCTION!!
