    1981 DeLorean 5spd - 1 Owner - Grooved Hood - 9,xxx miles - Parked 15 years ago

    1981 DMC 12
    One Owner - tagged last in Florida
    9,xxx miles
    5 speed

    Overall condition is only OK at best. Needs tires, some trim pieces, front passenger fender is dented. Would make a nice car for someone looking to clean it up and address some of the mechanicals.

    I installed a DMC MW fuel pump kit and completely cleaned out the tank. Car started up but I did not drive it due to leaking slave/master.

    Located in York, PA.

    Asking $17,900

    Hi, I would love to see pics and learn more. Also, what's the VIN and where did you buy it new in '81? Please PM if you prefer. Thanks!

    Oh wow this is pretty close to me. I wish I had the money to buy it. I just got a new job that may bring in some good money if it works out so who knows, maybe I'll be in the market within the year or so. Good luck with the sale!

    Here is an image of the engine. As you can tell, some of the hoses are incorrect. The coil cover is missing. The overflow bottle looks like it should be replaced simply due to age.

    I live in York, if the owner is okay with it and anyone is serious about buying this car but doesn't live locally, I'm more than willing to go out and go over the vehicle for anyone interested.

    Hi uhhair, that's a generous gesture which I may take you up on if the cards fall into place. I'm still waiting on more pics and info. Thanks!
