The Iron Man DeLorean

[Bob635]

I have removed the front fascia and creating a totally new one. It is much more aerodynamic. Similar to current designs which are parabolic - which is the most aerodynamic.

These are the new brackets that the new fascia mounts to.

Here are pictures of the start of the new rear fascia. I will also be adding a rear spoiler.

Oldsmobile Aurora?

Oldsmobile Aurora?

Rob,
Glad to see someone is watching. Buick skylark. Olds was too wide.

I?m watching with great interest. Just don?t have anything to add.

Me too.

(Sorry you got hosed by the tollway, Bob. I knew they were trying to dick you around but I didn't realize it was that bad. Is anybody investigating this judge if he's that obviously corrupt?)

Here is a picture of the new rear tail light bar panel.
This rear illuminated panel will have:

Parking light bar
Brake light bar
Sequential turn signal indicator
Back up lights in bumper
4" x 12" (both sides) programmable lighting effects and color

Tests indicate excellent linear :LED light transfer through the light bar.

Note the machined and polished DMC letters.

Here is a picture of the initial test wiring for the rear light panels and other rear iights. The 4" x 12" matrix lighting will be driven by an Arduino.
I plan to have a port on the rear fascia support so I can change the Arduino program.

Managed to make some progress on the new front fascia and support structure.

Just light the rear fascia, I am still installing a foam bumper protection for the 5 mph standard.

This new aerodynamic design will allow installing the air conditioning condenser in the front with its own push/pull fans. By moving these fans
I will be able to install the radiator at a steeper angle and hence a larger radiator.

By now having the AC condenser blow HOT AIR onto the radiator, I should have a much more efficient cooling system which is especially important in the
hot las Vegas and Phoenix and Texas summers.

I plan on having a new custom size aluminum radiator built with 3 fans - just like Lotus does for their cars. But some how Lotus did not have a 3 fan
radiator design for the Delorean. Why not? Obviously, they knew better.

I am making good progress on the new dash pad and new dash AC ducting.

I will be posting pictures in the few weeks. Had to go back to IL to do some work.

Any D owners want to come by and visit, let me know.
