I am thinking of collecting some Delorean related "stuff" Just curious some of the unique things people have or have seen....I was looking at the stock certificates but they are overpriced on ebay...I have heard about dealer signs and some other unique items too... Anyone out there have something from the factory or one of the dealerships? I do not like things that are "limited" or "special" edition items that are made to be collectables as they are usually neither :-) Mike C 2109 -----Original Message----- From: Walter Coe [mailto:Whalt@xxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, August 15, 2002 2:40 PM To: DMCForum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: [DMCForum] BTTF photos needed for a time machine conversion Travis, You spoke up two days too late! I was just at Universal Studios checking out the BTTF car they had on display. I didn't bring a camera. Jim Sleeth (one of the Florida DeLorean club people) works in the park, so maybe you could get him to bring a camera and take photos for you. The car appeared to be VIN 6475, but it was hard to read through the windshield while leaning way over the railing. It had the worst case of eyebrows on the front fascia I had ever seen. The low beam headlights were on continuously and the eyebrows were over the high beams (as usual) so maybe this dispels the myth of the eyebrow effect being caused by heat from the high beams. I think the sun heats the fascia more than the headlights ever could. The exhaust tips were cut off and put back on aimed forward. The engine & transmission were still intact. It was easy to look under the car because it is elegantly? posed on jack stands to look like it was flying. The license plate bezel had notches cut at the top -- I suppose because they couldn't figure out how it was supposed to fit under the license plate lamps. The car looked kind of sad, but it is serving a good purpose by giving the car so much publicity. We should start a petition to have them fix those eyebrows on the fascia! And with all the publicity of this car on display with the BTTF ride, it is no wonder we get so many BTTF jokes. I took a few pictures of the BTTF car that was at the Memphis show. Adjacent cars stopped me from taking any artistic photos. Mine are mostly anatomical of the stuff on the back of the car. Let me know and I'll e-mail them to you. Walt Yahoo!
