[DML] Re: 1981 Delorean coming up for sale/virtually factory new

["Joe OBrien" <joeyoseppijoe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Cool,

my 83 in perfect shape with 3,100 miles should be worth at least
$39,700. ($300 deduction for the extra 100 miles.) Perfect shape all
over, able to eat off undercarriage, all new fuel system, hoses,
waterpump, braided clutch cable, still original R-12 charge holding
perfect. Original NCT's with no flat spots from elevated storage. 5
speed, two tone black interior. Still have plastic covers for the
seats. Rich leather aroma inside as well.

But I'll hold on to mine, as it would be tough to replace with another
one of this quality.

I bought 2 other ones to be able to drive, and keep the 83 perfect.

I may be stupid for owning so may cars, but what the hell, you only
live once.


And your car since it is vin 2734 should have the gas flap hood. What
happened to it?


-Joe
