Well I'm laid up sick today, so I was browsing my older videos and came across this, and I have no idea why I ripped it. Ohh yeah, I remember, I made a GIF of the guy regraining, er, cross graining his Delorean. Anyway, I thought you might get a kick out of seeing it again as he deleted it long ago. I didn't need part 2 so I didn't save it, but this is the best one. It gets funny around 2:15

Graining a Delorean is like painting a fine art

Thanks for posting this because there is another YouTube video which I really like : http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lVu_7vcZdac That references this video and I never could find it.

That car eventually got repossessed. If I'm not mistaken it was taken back during the cross country trip!

I don't understand the mentality of someone who flees town to avoid paying debt. The only way to really get out of paying debt is to either die or flee the country.

On top of all that, you would have to be pretty dang silly to steal a Delorean from the bank. Its not that difficult for police to notice a stolen Delorean when its the only Delorean in town.

So that's why we never saw the ending. In part 2 he made it to like Mississippi or Georgia and had radiator troubles on the Geo, and it just stopped there.

he was. IIRC, he got some advice on how to strip the paint and he and his fiancé did the whole vehicle in the parking lot in just a few days.
