I'm guessing belts & hoses, possibly alternator. Ownership-wise I'm in the 
"looking" stage. Drove a D last Monday and when I got out and glanced back 
at the car following about 15 mins. of driving, the heat waves were just 
pouring out of the back of it!

I understand powerwashing them can damage them.

Somebody on the list mentioned, a month or two ago, that they had made their 
own, and made them a bit longer for better protection. Check the archives.

I'm sure dmc houston must have them. 
"www.de-lorean-steel-products.purespace.de" (in Germany) makes them out of 
stainless, I believe.
