Custom painted D for John DeLoreans brother?

Is this for real?

Never heard about it.

I've seen pictures of it before.



Maybe they mean it was painted at JZDs brothers Cadillac dealership,

I'm sure one of the Rich's know the story

Pretty poor photos for a for-sale ad, though

I've seen pictures of it before.

That is DanRC30's car. Which was stripped of it's paint some time ago.

It's a good possibility that it's a painted car from DeLorean Cadillac, but without papers, it has no provenance, and thus it is nothing. Even if it does have all of the paperwork, I seriously doubt that it's worth their asking price. But again, it's whatever someone is willing to pay. Was it custom FOR JZD's brother? I'm more likely to believe it was customized BY his brother at his dealership.

Also, yes, these are horrible pictures. It looks as though someone who doesn't know jack about the internet took some pictures with an expired disposable camera 20 years ago, and then only recently scanned them on too low of a resolution.

It also has one of my pet peeves of seller red flags of, "Never Driven in the Rain". So what? I read that, I feel like what the seller is really saying is, "Leaks like a sieve, but I need an albi to prove that I could never possibly have know that fact."

That's the tag I have on the photo - danrc30, but I have no idea what that means..

If it has been stripped, then the seller must have mistakenly uploaded the wrong pictures in his ad. Probably explains the poor quality. He'll be mad at himself when he realizes

Is it really the same car?

Nope. That car was stripped about 14 years ago...

Funny, the phone number traces back to a real car repair place in glenside PA.

So, maybe this car is real?
Some better pictures will be nice...

Robert, are you saying that the Hemmings car isn't DanRC30s car?

The scanned dated photos look very alike...
