Does this car have the grey interior with the gas flap? I couldn't 
really tell from the photos, but it didn't really look black.
If it really sat in the sun ALL the time and the binnacle & dash 
haven't turned to toast, then that is truly a miracle in Delorean 
terms. Especially with no eyebrows, those three items right there 
defy Delorean law so say it.
Mechanically how is it? Does it run, or does it need everything done 
to it, brakes, fuel, cooling, rubber, HVAC, etc, etc?
And hey, you might actually be able to get a gas-flap hood Greg. 
>From the photos, it looks to be needing a good regraining, as long 
as it is free of any major dings.
Hell, this is an early of a vin to classify it into the "prototype" 
or "pre-production" category. Since with the new thoughts most 
owners have, we ALL have pre-production cars, DMC just never got 
around to getting into full production.
I'd go with whatever one has the features you want, but not bankrupt 
you in the process.
I'd heavily favor the 5 speed model over the automatic though.
Or just buy both!

Thanks for the cleaning comment :) How'd you know I was an obsessive 
neat freak?
