Man what did I buy!

[Slammer]

Hi.
I think I must have purchased the worst delorean available. Vin 06201
It is a restauration object with lots of missing parts.
cracked windshield,
damaged rh frontfender,lh not good either
terrible interior, no binnacle, headliners and other missing parts, no glass in lh door
engine missing flywheel, no exhaust/heatshield/brackets, rear bumper, aircleaner assy, control press reg.
no lights up front,spoiler no radator/fans/cowling, horns
No fuelpump,but 50 liter water in the tank
Key don't work in the ignition
Fiberglass damage, and rust.
All of this can be fixed with time, exept the rust. I'm capable of welding, but knowing this is going to be a expensive project
I don't think I should because it will never be the same as a good rustfree frame. Having spent to much allready I can not give up the project
so I need another frame.
Any tips leading to a frame is much appreciated.
Will try to get some pics up later.

How much did you buy it for?
Did you not know its condition before purchasing?

For some inspiration, check out Alexakos resto thread in Members Cars. His started out worse than he expected, but is going to be A+.

So, good luck on your restoration
Where did you find your car?

I payed equivalent to $16k but remember everything is expensive in Norway.
I did not know it was so bad as it turned out to be no.
But just myself to blame for that.

Sounds more like you bought a parts car that had been partially parted out given all the missing items. Was this a private sale locally or Import? Ebay or private listing. If it came from the US which State? I Know of at least one guy out there Flipping cars to Europe that in some instances are real basket cases.

Damn! This compliment almost brought years to my eyes!!!
Thank you mouse!

But honestly, yes if you have the time / patience / luck, you may be the owner of a top notch Delo in about 24 months max....

Or just ship it to Greece and I'll trade it for mine

Any photos of that purchase?

[Slammer]

This car was already imported to Norway so I don't know were it came from.

[ALEXAKOS]

Btw slammer! There are LOADS of good used parts showing up in here from time to time!

In fact eBay has a very good front fender at a good rate.
