Hello Ryan,
A Delorean that's been properly maintained and has had all the
recommended upgrades is one of the most reliable cars on the road
today! However, "buyer beware" still applies. These cars are over
twenty years old, so if you find a "cheap fixer-upper", be prepared
for a lot of headaches. The worst problem you will find with
repairing Deloreans is almost always rusted, seized and broken nuts
and bolts that are almost impossible to get to in the first place.
You will need a set of stud extractors, drills, heli-coils, torches,
and a large vocabulary of swear-words. It's all worth it though, if
you have the passion.
