Re: Final comments on Pre-production car on ebay?

["d_rex_2002" <rich@xxxx>]

Claude and List,

I totally agree with the buyer beware and documentation approach to
buying a rare Delorean or any car for that matter, especially if you
are paying a premium price or if you are buying it as an investment.

I also think that you can get a diamond in the rough or lost gem by
looking at all of the details, and hunt for documentation later,
especially if you can purchase the car for a reasonably low price. 

Example: How many Deloreans have you seen with the side marker lights
that touch the edge of the fascias? Looks like pre-production to me.
(all production cars have a space between the lens and the fascia)

Later,
Rich W.


BTW: Jim said he was flooded with emails but had only 2 phone calls.
