Dear Bob,
Is it not also true that the dies were siezed, "sold" and sunk as
"weights" for a British Government funded boondoggle involving setting
nets around sewage outlets? The idea was to keep the preditors out so
the good fish could be caught easily. Problem is the preditors easily
found their way in and soon outnumbered the catch. Another good use for
valuable tax dollars.
I suspect there were Government operatives/agendas in this as it all
happened much too quickly and vengefully. If all they wanted were
weights, rocks with eyeloops fitted were all too available. This was a
targeded 'ironic' disposal of the dies and not the kind of thing a
thoughtful liquidator would have done with one of the most valuable
assets of the DMC operation. Knowing the Irish were behind what might
have been a successful operation, sinking the dies was the surest way to
eliminate the chance of a "comeback". "Pioneers" often take the arrows
and a reorganization might have been possible to save the DeLorean
effort. Without the dies, it was a whole lot harder.

Dear GC,
According to John Delorean, He sent his people to Ireland to buy dies.
However, "someone" repeated shot at them and in fear for their lives
they left the country.
