I am too old for this car now. It has automatic trans. The leather driver side needs help and now the heat in Havasu has taken it's toll on the dash. I would like to get $14,500 for it. It runs and the engine sounds good but little things are nickeling and dimeing me. i.e. turn signals don't work, rear view mirror is now in back seat waiting for adhesive, gas gage is not accurate. I need a good offer. [email protected]

I am the second owner. It has been trucked from Maryland to Charleston, SC and now out here to AZ. I have owned it since 2005 or 2006. I can't remember. I am still learning my Mac book. Not sure if I can post pics but will give it a try/Users/francesnorton/Desktop/Delorean.jpg, Well that didn't work did it? I'll keep trying and then call my b-in-law. It's oaky to look stupid in front of strangers but not him,:lol:

A picture of the interior and one of the steel frame would be great.

I hate the heat problem with the binnacle. Does anyone know where I can get this replaced? I am also going to see an interior guy this weekend for leather seats.

The seats are no problem to fix, the binnacle you may have to get recovered.

Hi, the frame is the under lying structure of the car, if you take a few photos from underneath of different areas, its the light grey painted steel framework. It puts peoples minds at ease as thats the most difficult part to fix.

(anyone can correct me if I'm wrong, I'm still looking for my DeLorean!)

I think Special T has a choice of vinyl or leather binnacles for sale.

Appears or is? I ask as I might be interested as well provided it is still available.

It appears that someone is trying to "flip" it for a profit. Don't see it selling for 27k, maybe 15k to 18k. Fascias look rough.

Otherwise not bad!

Looks like the OP sold it since he hasn't logged on for months.
