I apologise in advance to you boys who are already plugged into the DML and
will be familiar with this sorry tale! I did predict, months ago that it
would all end in tears, I bet Ed id glad he was kept out of it!

> One of the main reasons I purchased this inventory was to relieve the
> DeLorean community of this lying, stealing, libeling, delusional, and
> misinforming scourge to said community.
> How many of you remember Claude's post a few years ago about how he could
> remove a door without first slackening the torsion bar? There were two
doors
> in his basement that he swore were good when he put them down there but I
> could not confirm this on my pre-purchase initial inspection due to

get

the
> price by $3000- only because I had already given him the initial check for
> $22000- and knew he would never agree to a refund.

and
