Got SUPER lucky and just picked up one on ebay this week from a low mile parts car in Arizona. Thing is FLAWLESS!!
Been dealing with this since I picked up 11572.....5 years ago. (Bigger things...
Hey there, everyone!
This might be a pipe dream at this point.
Been through a few channels trying to track this down.
Looking for a section of carpet for my late '82, vin: 11572.
It's the...
I've been on Instagram and The Chive.
Here's mine.

Haha, I know! GM claimed it was supposed to be able to go 5 years or 100,000 miles before servicing/flushing. That's what a lot of the lawsuits are about. I recommend changing the stuff every 2 years...
If you're going to use Dex just be very committed to coolant flush intervals. I used to build LS engines in my free time and I've seen that stuff turn solid/gel if left in there too long. There's a...
If your hoses are original then yes it is time to replace them.
As for the water pump, I did some quick digging for you and yes it does have a weep hole. Could be a possibility. See attached link:...
I second checking hose clamps. With it getting colder out the rubber shrinks and sometimes with older clamps, they need to be tightened just a tad. Happened all the time on all the Fieros that I had...
"Unfortunately the original finish has been scuffed up by abrasive douchebags like yourself."
You're welcome. :thumbup2:
I see your point and that's true but those are very low on my list right now. Besides, other people shouldn't need to be the reason or point to replace them. My concern isn't me breaking a handle....
Because I'd rather the door open than someone snap a door handle off. I was in view of the car.
Miscommunicated my point.
This was not to say that I specifically never take the DeLorean out anymore because I'm afraid of something happening to it. Far from it. The thing is always out doing...
You are very brave.
I never leave mine intentionally unattended and if something forces me to do so, it's not for very long.
About a month in with my last DeLorean, I drove it down to...
Great! I've been watching and waiting for this to become available. Ordered and thanks very much for the heads up!
Thank you VERY much Dave. That makes me feel better. (I kept thinking, great what did I do now...) For some reason I just noticed it last night. I think I remember '5444 being higher on one side than...
Hey everyone!
So I noticed last night while out mowing grass that my driver's side rear fender/tire gap looked smaller than the passenger. It was sitting in our car port that's built into our...
Like the title says. I've been really curious for these past 3 or so years where my first DeLorean ended up. Has anyone come across or better yet bought vin '5444? Not trying to be a creeper. Just...
Hi there guys!
Beating a dead horse, I know. Would like to acquire a set of front lowering springs if anyone has a set sitting around (doubtful). Looking to lower the front end only. Probably 2.5...
Nice work Dave!!! Looks good!
Just got my set of tail light boards from the great Dave and Julee. I have to say, they're very nice. Especially for the price. Call me old fashioned but I stuck with the incandescent bulbs. Install...
CONGRATS and welcome!!
Assuming the number in your user name is a vin reference.
Mike, you are 2 vins away from my first DeLorean. Welcome to the forums!
Haha, sorry Mike! It was really a lot of work. Marty and I went to 3 different exhaust shops before we could get one to make "test pipe" components to replace the crumpled catalytic. I will say...
Thank you Julee. It's so good to be back and be able to hang out with everyone again. Coming home to a DeLorean out where we live is like being on vacation every day!
