That's odd, as in the description, it does say "The Delorean is a gray automatic 1981 with a Stage II engine with 39,000 miles. The car has been upgraded and was recently serviced at DMC in Houston."

That said, I've bought cars where the seller said it needed 'thousands in work' with estimates to show that, and in the end, a few weekends and a couple hundred in parts sorted the car out. It may be that to a non-DeLorean owner, you make a quick list of what the car needs, ask your local specialty mechanic who's charging top dollar to quote it and you can come to $6k in a real hurry.

Hopefully he takes ownership, pays the taxes, joins the community and gets it back on the road for well under the $6k.
