Greg, I have thought about this. But I do not have the time or the funds to rebuild this car. One main reason I bought this parts car was to supply parts to my delorean. I feel that with some work the frame will be salvageable. My car needs a new frame. Also other parts on the parts car will go well with my car. Rebuilding 1697 would be, essentially, exactly what Dave is doing with Project Vixen. I would have to tear the car completely apart and rebuild from there.
