Sorry for bringing up and old thread but how would i know when my car (3501) was shipped and on what boat?
Hey all
I'm noticing that my arm rest caps and binnacle are all starting to discolor. The car is garage kept, never left outside. Only 16k miles.
Anyone else seeing this on theirs? Other...
It is a very valid question! LOL
There was a video floating around of Tony from DMC Florida driving this around a bit. For the life of me I cannot find it anywhere. Doesn't anyone know what I'm talking about?
I've got the very same poster in my garage. When I was 10 or 11 my uncle somehow found it for me and I've had it hung on my wall ever since.
Reminds me of a bit Mitch Hedberg did about pictures.

I'm picking up one up soon myself. Wife got me a DJI Phantom Quadcopoter and I'd like to use a GoPro Hero 3+ to do some aerial videography.
If you look closely during the intro, he's in 2 different DeLoreans. One has the original OEM high nose suspension. Then in the next cut he's on the highway with a slammed down modern setup. It...

My wife owned a SC1 with a single cam engine and a 4 speed auto. S L O W !...

What part of Brooklyn are you in? I'm originally from Brooklyn (Bergen Beach area).
Anyone know of another way to get a free vin check? I found some vin numbers of a few cars I used to own. I would love to see where they ended up.
10306! We're neighbors!!! I'm in 10308.
I've seen this car in person. Last I saw it, it was for sale in a Porsche / Mercedes Benz classic car dealership. It wasn't far from Edgewater / Hoboken. It was there for a week or 2 then...

I agree. It's a nice forum but I don't get the impression that many pop the hood and diagnose their own issues. Quite a few posts begin with "So I'm taking my Jag to the dealership tomorrow..."
Sure have. I'm a regular member there as well. However, no one has provided as good of a solution as Rich has.

Not sure if the 2 issues are related but my guess is they just might be!

I recently purchased a battery for my Jaguar XK8. My local mom and pop shop wanted 190 for the battery (it's HUGE). It was an off brand battery with a logo of a fist holding a lightning bolt. ...
