10000 Internets if you remember them all

[Roman Legion]

Number 11.. Was that car used as target practice? Looks like bullet holes; from a .22 rifle?

[DL4567]

The first car (1 UFO) one of my high school friends just bought a few months ago. He drove it from Washington state all the way here in the southeast where he lives.

Hammered dimples to keep the bondo on.

Honestly

[Chris Burns]

I remember the white one. Everything in that car was labeled.

[Renee_1632]

I remember two because I absolutely HATE that wrap! Also, number 4...wasn't that one of the DeLorean triplets found in the shed?

[dvonk]

lets see how well i can do:

1. VIN 11537 (1 UFO)
2. VIN 10239 (Gulf Racing wrap)
3. not sure
4. VIN 10186 (yes, Renee, one of the 3 in a barn :smile:)
5. VIN 02650 (Project DeLorean)
6. not sure
7. not sure (tiny pic, originally thought it was Curtis' D, but not on closer inspection.)
8. VIN 04479 (Rally D)
9. VIN 05517 (or is it 5837?) (abandoned in norcal forest)
10. not sure
11. not sure of the VIN but i remember the thread.
12. not sure

hm. 50%... not a very good score. no internets for me i guess. :dunno:

who can help me fill in the VIN gaps and stories behind them?

[dhaney]

#7 - Clamato Car is the car used in to race in Mexico.

Dan

[dvonk]

thats #8... #7 is next to the tiny pic of the red D.

[Andy]

Nr. 7 was build by a German guy ; id didn't last very long, cause it burned out a bit later, so it doesn't exist anymore. I'm not shure if that's such a shame or not?

[Andy]

Nr. 8 is a DeLorean they used for racing (??). I don't know if it exists today, it certainly isn't running anymore ...

Yellowmxwheels32, on here bought it. There was a great thread on .com about it

[Karin]

I remember the blue and orange one from the old forums.

[dvonk]

i figured out #11: VIN 05537

[DMCNY]

I think this car is pretty cool looking. You can tell he must have put a lot of work into it, and would defintely consider it a shame the car burned.

I love the wheels, too. Does anyone have any info on type/where those wheels can be bought?
