[DML] Re: Big Thanks To Dave Sontos!

Hi gang,
You guys are absolutely amazing!  For people to even mention helping 
me with my problem DeLorean just leaves me stunned!  Much thanks to 
you Dennis to suggest this to a person whom you haven't met before 
but like everyone else on the list shares a passion for the 
DeLorean.  I did go over and take a look at the wrecked DeLorean in 
Chesapeake and I must say that it is certainly a mess.  The owner of 
the yard says that certain parts of the frame might be rusted after 
I told him that was what I was primarily interested in.  The frame 
as a whole seems O.K. except for the front crumple tube which is 
exactly that-Crumpled.  It might be possible to work with it but I 
would have to get some pictures together (with the permission of the 
junkyard of course)and see what our experts here think.  I can't 
remember the VIN to the car but it has Maryland plates and was 
assembled in Dec. 1981.  Mighty sad to see a car which was once 
someone's pride and joy to have tadpoles swimming in the glove box 
and plants growing out of the front seat.  The pictures of my frame 
are listed in the photo section as "Frame Rust-#3760" and I would 
appreciate any of the members taking the time to view them and 
giving me your thoughts on whether or not repair would be possible.
Thanks again for everyone's help!
Mike
