According to a gentleman over here who will remain nameless!!! He was talking to Ken Koncheilek about the auction and he stated that the owner was only testing the water with delorean owners worldwide and hopes to resell the car on the open market in the near future. He is looking in the region of $150,000 for the car which Ken says is in terrible order as the frame is nearly rusted clean through - thats why it is up on bricks in the picture as the frame supports cant hold the weight of the car on the wheels. It was a real auction if only to test the response of the delorean public.
