    Dang!
    eBay selling at it's best I can tell you stock Delorians and quite a bit of slugs so the Turbo is a super nice up-grade.

    That makes Bill Robertson's setup look like a work of art. I would be afraid to touch that mess.

    The mesh screen quarter panel glass, silver kryloned radiator hose, and blue tarp louvers are definitely a nice touch. The auction says it's a 1980 DeLorean, so obviously this is a pre-production model. Given the painstaking attention to detail in the maintenance of this car, how could that possibly be a typo? On the driver's door there's also a visible P.J. Grady sticker. I can't wait until he announces pricing for these mods.

    Holy hell, am I looking at a wooden intake manifold?

    My favorite part is: "No title but over 30 years old so easy to obtain title."

    It is, in certain states. I could do it, but it'd take me 6 months MINIMUM.

    To answer the question, a MotorCraft 500 CFM.

    It has Cadillac seats and a lot of other cool mods ...
    $6000.00 including K-Jet pulloffs -- JOSH?

    GA titles for any pre-1986 can be had immediately with Bill Of Sale, and any year with Title Bond (where time depends on agent, usually ~15 days if you don't know one, but it's not cheap). It's true that it is only a little more hassle in TN.

    .
    Is that for the carb set-up, or the whole car? Where did the price come from?
