Title: RE: [doc] Bringing up a Delorean engine to visual splendor???

Cheers for all that Martin,

        spent a littlework time, looking over the lot you sent me. It seems that the Wingray bottle is £147!! The PJ Grady bottle(in stunning stainless) is only $169 plus shipping. It seems steep for the Wingray bottle. I had a look at Criss Nicholsons pics, and his car is amazing. I think I have about 3 years to go before I can dream of getting that far. However, I like some of the stainless products. Didn't stickers for the top of the engine, or in stainless, where did you see those Martin? One thing I quite fancied was to clean up as much as I can, polish up the areas of the engine I can get to, then replace black hoses, and connectors, with red ones. I'm aiming for the look of an italian grand tourer engine here, if you know Maserati engines you'll know what I mean. I'll do this at the same time as I take the LAMDA and CAT off the car, which could be as soon as May. Watch this space, a much quicker, flasher PSO is in the the pipeline:) Stephen.

First off, check what a bottle will cost from Wingray before you write
off the one from PJ Grady

You want to look at these pics

http://www.delorean.co.uk/more_club_cars/chrisn.html

I've just realised somewhere along the line, Chris Nicholson disappeared
off the Club Cars page  -why did nobody tell me?! AAARGH!

Anyway, Steve, you need to spend some time at

www.delorean.com
www.pjgrady.com
www.specialtauto.com
www.deloreanmotorcenter.com

...and realise quite how much you can get from "overthere". Stickers
are just one of the things (and they are available in re-production
stainless steel). You need to speak to Chris Nicholson, though prepare
to be stunned by quite hw much work you'd need to do to get yours as
good as his.....
