The DMC-12 as a Jeopardy clue?

[Jonathan]

"I'll take Historic Automobiles for $1,000, Alex"

"This iconic 1981 DeLorean featured this unique door design."

"What is '90 pound doors that the 110 pound cute little game show host would have had an easier time opening if the museum curator had have thought to check the gas struts before filming'?"

"No, sorry. We would have taken 'seagull doors' or 'droop when cold doors'."

Stay tuned for final jeopardy. Tonight's category is 'Cars Built in Belfast, New Brunswick.' We'll be right back after a word from our sponsor.

Haha, brutal. Seagull. lol

Hehehe. At least they were kind enough to wear gloves

Maybe he was thinking of the original commercial with seagulls flying around ...........

Car shows need to hand these out, too many people just want to touch my car. Or any Delorean for that matter.

All those cars are in the same museum. The car pictured is vin 500. It doesn't have a DMC logo on the grill.

This car is indeed VIN...500 at the Crawford Auto Museum.

It's good to see the passenger door open again.
It was jammed closed for close to a decade.

Notice the Pilot Car passenger seat in VIN...500
when the door is opened. (different seat back)

VIN...500 never had a DMC logo installed.
