Re: [DMCForum] Re: JZD & Bricklin

[Erik Geerdink <dmcerik@xxxxxxxxx>]

i have a  copy that I bought from a local dealership when I first got into Deloreans (1997 or so)  He had an entire box full of them that were brand new.  The only person that has opened this particular book is John Delorean when he signed it.  This dealership still had these books in boxes up until early this year when the warehouse caught on fire and destroyed everything inside, included a mint dealership sign, and a lot of new parts (fenders, interior, engines, ect)

Well, I paid 10 bucks, it was so new the thing had never been read, no bends 
no nothing, like it was bought and just sat in that little store.

I was a real JZD / DMC Fanatic when I wanted one, and went after anything I 
could find that was delorean.

Alot of my friends including a Corvette Driving teacher liked to make cracks 
at it, you guys are right about it bringing out the worst in people.

Personally I think they where jealous.
