Re: Italdesign D with saddle interior

["therealdmcvegas" <DMCVegas@xxxx>]

If this is a prototype car, then it's a pretty late one. Otherwise, it just appears to 
be a modified/customised production car. Albeit a early one, probably.

If you look closely, you can see that the car does indeed have tollboth 
windows. Also, the clearance light on the front is not pulled flush with the 
facia, there is the normal gap there.

I don't know if it was the camera flash or not, but the interior doesn't appear to 
be a DeLorean color. It's a bit too light for saddle, and a bit too dark from what 
I've seen are in Esprits. If I were to speculate, I'd say it's a custom color. As for 
the seats, who knows where they're from.

The car has seen some use though. You can tell from the hard water stains in 
the SS panels, to the road grime in the wheel wells.

I wonder if someone sent them an e-mail, if they would be kind enough to 
reply with the vin #?
