"The only thing that I have found not working is the clock. A new one
is listed for $134.00 in the parts catalog. Also, there is a slight
crack on the consol area of the dash (the dash comes in four sections)
the consol section is the area where the defrost vents are. I have
spoken to two professional interior men and got an approximate cost to
cover the consol with the same quality vinyl as is the original for
$200.00 or less. That's it !!!!!"
Someone needs to tell him the NOS consoles are NOT available. Dashes &
binnacles don't CRACK from excessive dark garages. And why are the
tires replaced after 450 miles?
Come to think of this, I believe I remember this car.
Remember last year around in April, or may there was a similar 450
mile Delorean titled original MSO Delorean with 450 miles.
It was sold as a D with and MSO & bill of sale, that was used as a
"demo" as the ebay ad claimed. The mileage was very suspicious as
well. It was sold to a man in Florida as well. Coincidence? Doubt it.
I'd almost bet this is the one, as it had wear in the same areas as
this one.
Can't find the messages in the archives, but I'd almost guess this is
the same car.
Love tracking down bullshit claims on these eBay auctions.
