    1980 Delorean/Lotus prototype for sale.

    Not sure if this has already been posted, but what a cool find!

    A few differences from the production car. Different windows, different made stainless steel, and slightly different interior.

    I think I'd still rather have those windows.

    I agree. But you can't very well sell a "Luxury Sports Car" with manual sliding windows. Man! You thought the car got shit back when it came out, just imagine if it had those windows to add to it.

    I think this has been for sale for a long time. Really a collectors car at the end of the day.

    Which is why they should have made them POWER Sliding Windows! If I ever get more time and money than I know what to do with, I'll at least spend some of it trying to duplicate the sliding windows, with power.

    Hey Jim,

    Let me know when you are ready to "play" with the power sliding window idea.

    I can probably donate a fire damaged door to the project, so you can start to
    sort out what would be needed regarding measurements and dimensions, etc.

    Later,
    Rich W.

    What ever happened to the extra wide roll down window kit that someone was talking about making? I know I'd be first in line for that.
