    The State Trooper had actually pulled over the Coke Van and was ticketing him when I pulled in the parking lot. I waved to him and he smiled and waved back.

    My seat backs were fine before my seats were recovered. Now both backs pop off. Still trying to figure out a fix.

    I'll echo whats already been said. Buy the best example you can afford. Something with documentation that has been properly maintained would be ideal. The rule of $25k applies here. If you buy a car...

    The DeLorean variant is different than the PRV's most volvo mechanics are familiar with, so it's not surprising what they are saying about it. You're probably not going to get much help from them,...

    Sorry, but I have to disagree with the premise of the thread. The PRV is actually one of the more reliable parts of the car as long as it gets regular service, doesn't overheat, or is left to sit. I...

    Parking lots are dangerous places for our little cars. We are ants compared to the giants that occupy that space.

    As far as TAB's go, if they are in good shape, I don't see a reason to replace them, just inspect them regularly. If they are bent like mine were, they should be replaced immediately. With the...

    A car is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. What you "think" it's worth is irrelevant.

    Those look great.

    One of my front tires has a case of curb rash (it actually took out a small chunk of alloy on the edge). Can something like that be repaired or used as a core?

    I've been pulled over 3 times for no front tag (Twice in one day!). I got tired of it and reluctantly put the front tag on even though it ruins the look of the front end. Just isn't worth the hassle.

    When I was 19, I took out a loan against my daily driver (which was paid off) to purchase the DeLorean. Paid it off again in less than 2 years. Had I to do it over again, I would just wait until I...

    Hi guys! I've been out of the loop for a while and am trying to get 10842 back in shape again.

    The car starts right up (cold), but I'm getting very poor acceleration for the first few minutes. It...
