I like your car. Welcome to the forum.
Alex, I've followed the progress on your car ever since you opened
the container. I'm amazed and I have one question ... do you have a Job?
Aleksander, yours is a classic case of a master cylinder ''leaking through itself.'
rebuild or replace the master and you'll be good to go.
Do not use Fleet Express Auto Transport. They are based in Miami ...I over paid
$400 and they won't give it back.
I like all the examples above but I like the one Hervey's Special T sells.
I put some on 4915 and it looks great. The material is thick and
I expect it to last a long time.

My car has symptoms similar to DMCsprint's and runs fine until I accelerate. It spits and sputters and backfires. No one
above has mentioned a possible vacuum leak. I have convinced myself that is...
I've had that noise before. I envisioned some grains of sand on the pad.
Usually I would put the car in reverse and brake several times. Sometimes
it worked.
It must have been in '84 when I bought the SS letters for the bumper.
I bought them from Ed B at D one who gave his personal guarantee that they
would never come off. Here it is thirty years later...
I'm back to report on the continuing saga that is me and my DeLorean.
I got the car back after DPI opened the doors which were stuck. Now, I've
driven my favorite 30 mile loop twice with no...
Ryan, do still have the third brake light for sale?
I may have missed it but I didn't see this technique mentioned. After the final rinse with water
I take the car to a nearby rural road with a straight stretch and air it out. A few minutes
at...
What the hell are y'all arguing about? I thought we were here to talk about DeLoreans ...
I think mine is an 'innie'. It's been at DPI so long I have forgotten. I know that from time to time the
strap would get loose and would even fall off. I put a little plastic clip on it with a pop...
Several years ago I had the same problem. I took the switch apart and was surprised at how complex it was. I took off
a couple parts which led to removing a couple more parts. At that point I was...
Yep, these little cars will make you pull your hair out ... well, not you Alex. A few days ago after a
short drive, I pulled in the shop, turned the engine off and pulled the handle to get out ......
Hi Brian, thanks for the compliments ... the radio is an Alpine which was popular back in the day; heavily advertised
with Lamborghini at the time.
I would have the Elise Permanently parked ... just to be admired not to drive.
After years of picking up things that are too heavy and holding them up too long my body is
osteoarthritis bound...
Yeah I've got to check that out. I don't want to miss that. Since I got 4915 back from DPI I
have installed a third brake light, SS letters on the rear fascia, the SS air filter, installed the
the...
Alex, at my age I can tell the difference between a him and a her ... 4915 is
most definitely a damsel rescued by her knight in shining armor ... and by Josh
Bengston and DPI.:monkeys:
Alex, you are a funny guy ... I just got back home after an hour long test hop and it's just
as I remembered. There isn't much room in there and you have to be a contortionist
to get in and out. I...
Hey Josh, I've had the car for almost 2 weeks and haven't driven it yet.
I will remedy that this afternoon. It's funny, I'm having to re-learn a few
things like getting in or out and there really...
I swap the whole seat. You can do it with no modifications. Of course making any adjustments is tough
with the wheel jammed against the console. I make a one time setting on the driver's seat since...
The interesting thing here is I never used a dashmat. The car is always garaged and is covered on the rare nights left outside.
Does anyone here think JZD had a good idea?:wow:
[ATTACH=CONFIG]25174[/ATTACHSome of you asked about the interior so I've posted a few pics of where she lives.
Nothing unusual here until one considers the car is 33 years old with 370K miles and a...
The best laid plans ... Irony to the max ... Exactly 18 months, a year and a half, after I shipped her to DPI for
the mother of all refurbishments, after spending an obscene amount of money ($50K...
