Ski,
A Grant steering wheel hub adapter, part # 3162, will also fit.
About

I have had a number of people from Europe and now one from Australia ask
if
the magazine is available to them.
Of course it is and we will cover the extra postage so you can enjoy it
for
the same price as everyone else.
The web page is sorta up and running
check out the cool car artwork supplied by Stephen Clark
its awesome and some people have said they can't stop playing with it
Also use audio and when you hear it idle left click
Have fun

Subject: RE: Re: hydraulic fluid seeps
Thanks.
I replaced the MC and drained the lines until the new fluid was coming out
clear.
I'm doing my TABS while I'm under there.
I noticed that with the back end up, wheels off, engine running in
neutral,
that the hubs actually spin a bit, but not totally steady (or, maybe that
was my junior mechanic pumping the brakes). Is that normal, is that signs
of
a worn clutch?

If I'm not mistaken, the girl on the cover is none other than Ken's own
daughter. She was at the Memphis show last summer. If I could see Steve's
face, I would imagine it would be red after the DCS Swimsuit Issue
comment.

I'm not exactly sure what I'm going to be doing with this car yet.
I first want to see the extent of the damage and i'll make my
decision from there. I know i'm going to be getting a lot of emails
saying "i must be restored!!" Let me check the car out first and
I'll let you all know.

Subject: HELP wipers, brake lights and a thief
Hi all-
Well, I bit the bullet yesterday and finally got around to getting my D.
back on the road after a 1 year hiatus. I ordered the long needed water
pumpfrom PJ Grady and got the car ready to go to my mechanic for work.
Opened the D. up and lo and behold some jerk had stolen my radio...and
ripped the air vents out breaking them. Plus I noticed my binacle has
finally cracked...
Got the D. to the shop and seems it won't pass inspection since all of a
sudden my wipers do not work and my brake light is staying on.
Please, any advise is appreciated and should anyone have the air vent
assembly for sale, please email me or call me.
Hoping to have my D. back on the road in the Shenandoah Valley,
David W. Silek

Hi!
Since the demise of No. 4875 a few years back (due to a rear-end
collision) I'm now clearing out the garage and making room for another. I
currently have a lathe-turned and newly powdercoated front (i.e.,
restored) DeLorean Front Wheel up for sale. See:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=13874&item=73879700

I'll be posting future items over the next few weeks during the holidays,
as I attempt to liquidate my cache of DeLorean parts (some used, some
new).
thanks for looking -
Michael

Subject: Re: hydraulic fluid seeps + About break callipers
Hi,
I don't know what 2nd hand callipers for the DeLorean cost in the
States but over here I can get a 2nd hand calliper of the shelf from
a breaker for £14.00 (about $21)
Same part number and same part. must be one of the cheapest parts
you can buy for the DeLorean in the UK.
New $300.00 from vendor, 2nd user with new seals and cleaned pistons
$30-$40
I know which one I would choose, and have chosen, relining the boars
for a part of this value seems a bit over the top to me, IMHO
James RG
(no disrespect to DMC vendors, there parts are of course brand new
hence the extra price)

When you disasemble the calipers you will know right away if they
can be cleaned up by a light honing. If they can't be cleaned up
fitting s/s sleeves is way beyond the machining capabilities of most.

Subject: 1983 Kepec Model
Hello,
There is an auction on ebay.com for a 1983 Delorean "Kepec" model.
Does anyone know what this means? I couldn't find anything searching
the archive. I think there might be a connection between this term
and the fact that it was one of last cars produced. I just don't
know...
Thanks
Bill
Excerpt:
This is probably the finest example of a DeLorean in North America! I
am selling this car for a friend. It is one of the last DeLorean's
made and is a "Kepec". It has black leather interior and the quad
sound system. It is absolutely flawless and has won many shows.It has
approx. 5000 original miles, but has not been driven for 2 years. It
is located near Toronto and photos will be available shortly.It has
both USA and CND emission stickers.For the serious DeLorean
enthusiast only!!!

Correct!
This page has a couple of Kens favorite pictures from Memphis -
Ken dancing with his daughter, Angela, the SS model.
(the SS is for Stainless Steel, not Swim Suit :-)

This page has Angela's Dance Team, entertaining us in Memphis.
It also has a picture of the DeLorean Guitar.

Subject: Re: hydraulic fluid seeps
Even with the transmission in neutral, there is some internal drag
from the thick oil in the gear box. You should find that you can
easily hold the hubs (or wheels if installed) from rotating in this
condition. No worries. There are other tests to determine if the
clutch is "done", like putting it in gear with the brakes on to see
if the clutch grabs well enough to kill the engine. Crude but
effective. Let us know (if you don't mind) about the condition of
your TAB's, and associated bushings and other hardware. I'm always
trying to keep tabs on the condition of the fleet (please pardon the
pun!). Happy Thanksgiving to one and all! We have so much to be
thankful for.
