    eBay DeLorean underside question

    Hi,

    The DeLorean being sold here shows underside pics near the end of the picture collection.

    http://www.ebay.com/itm/DeLorean-DMC...m=191750703727

    Is that underside considered too rusty to be reliable? Are problems imminent?

    Just curious. It seems like a good deal otherwise.

    I can't tell you enough how bad of an idea this car is. Stay very far away if at all possible.

    It looks like an undercoated car. Make it really hard to see the frame condition from photos.

    Funny thing is that the car is really in Canada. Interesting that he doesn't mention that.

    Looks less rusty than my car's underside. But Dave has a point that it looks under latex and that can hide the rusty frame.

    Josh, what is so bad about this particular car? Looks pretty nice.

    Doesn't matter now. Someone pulled the trigger.... They are about to be in for one wild ride.
