    Installed interior LED kit from DMC, along with new new door pull straps, and new engine bay light and switch. Thank you to username "Michael" for the helpful advice!

    I installed an LED exterior light kit From DMC, One of the red LED bulbs for the taillights didn't work. I tried it in other sockets, it was definitely the bulb. I called DMC they said they would warranty the bulb, That was April, I still haven't received a new bulb. They stated they were out of stock. I said could you send me one from a kit since I have already paid or my kit? They said they couldn't do that. So still waiting for a replacement after 5 months.

    Today, I finally got around to cleaning the stainless with Barkeepers Friend (the liquid version). I like the squeaky clean, satin sheen that the cleaner leaves behind.

    Then I gave my Daily Driver a rest and drove the Delorean all around. It was a beautiful day.

    I got mine from DMC Midwest, not DMC Texas.

    I forgot to mention I tried to order an Exterior LED kit with my Interior LED Kit and was told the LED taillight bulbs are on back order, so maybe that's why you haven't heard or gotten anything...

    New stainless steel fuel lines from DMC MW installed today along with new clutch, brake, and gearbox fluids. Also, new coolant. I washed it as well, but I'm pretty sure we are going to get rained on tomorrow on the way to DCS 2018...

    Fixed a flaky brake light by adding solder where the socket was riveted on. Replaced reverse light bulbs with LEDs.

    Adjusted the valves, painted the valve covers and alternator mount, changed the oil and transmission fluid. I thought it was shifting fine before, but now it’s like a different car. Installed new stainless steel bolts wherever possible along the way.

    You think that improvement was due to the old ATF being in poor shape? Or just low? Or the filter being plugged? ...just curious as I'm always up for getting my own running as well as it can.
