    I can answer that. The Govt. was very specific about only dealing with John. They would not move forward with meeting with Roy or anyone else, only John. John wanted Roy to meet with Hoffman first and/or join him for their first meeting, but it wasn't allowed. That should have been a warning sign to John that something was awry from the get go.

    Thanks. The film is shaping up quite nicely. Very excited to present it to the DeLorean community.

    Tamir, how much will Roy feature in your upcoming film?

    Roy Nesseth was (is?) certainly an interesting character in the Delorean saga. He called me out of nowhere many years ago. I think it was still the 80's but may have been early 90's hyping a potential class action lawsuit on behalf of owners. I smelled a rat and politely demurred. Never heard from him again. Seemed shady from the getgo. John could have done better than associating with the likes of him.

    Who was he trying to sue, and for what?

    Sounds like he was going to turn on JZD - his former boss - and sue DMC. (Really?!)

    No this was some years after, probably mid 80's and DMCL was long gone, and John was not the target. He was talking about a class action suit for the benefit of then current Delorean owners either against the bankruptcy lawyers or the British government or both. It was so inane I barely paid attention having already heard of his previous reputation. Suing either one to my mind would have been equivalent to "....... in the wind!" This should also answer Dara's question.
