The DeLorean's greatest feature is the stainless - but its timelessness can hide a real mechanical disaster.[/QUOTE]

Can you tell from the Plate tag when it expired? It also appears the owner was an enthusiast at some point. Hence the Bumper letters. DELOREAN You generally don't see those on cars that were parked 20 years ago.

When you say that the car hasn't run "since you lived here", how long are we talking about?
A month, a year, 10 years?

Go in with balls. Tell him you will remove the scourge from his property for no charge. Tell him how the Delorean was a piece of sh#t that never run right, needs tons of work, always breaks down and etc, etc, etc. Ask him if HE intends to make it running? Has HE looked at the cost? Does HE have the time or skill to fix it? That's how you'll buy it for $2K.
