[DML] Values of engine swapped cars and more...

["James" <james@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I think the rotary DeLorean sold in the mid-high teens, actually.
Someone on the list who knows for sure will chime in, I'm sure.

The Northstar DeLorean also sold in about the same price range. Last I
heard *for sure* it was in Idaho, but recently heard that it is now in
Texas, near Houston as a matter of fact.

I've *never* seen or heard FIRSTHAND of a DeLorean with an engine
conversion selling for anywhere near the high 20's / low 30's. I'd
like more details about these cars for my records, if you can supply them.

We've sold about a dozen DeLoreans in the last six months, ranging
from $7500 on up to the mid $40's, including "used" and completely
refurbished cars. See the "used" ones here:

These sales are reported to the NADA Classic, Collectible and Special
Interest Car Guide which (along with Cars of Particular Interest
(CPI)) is what most financial institutions and insurance companies use
as a reference for values.
