Hi dmc lovers,

I need your help. I’m a total newbie with anything DMC related. I have been given the opportunity to purchase a 1981 DMC-12 from the original owner. It’s a manual transmission and has 50,000 miles and everything works except A/C. I was told the refrigerant leaked and never repaired. The other unknown is if the automatic locks are working. The car is has been in Southern California it’s entire life. Passing smog will also be an issue. Is this a good purchase for $25,000?

Thanks for helping out a Delorean newbie.
