I was looking at a DOA service facilities directory circa 1990. It lists all the places in the US the DOA knows works on DeLoreans. Aside from lots of dealerships and independents, there is the obvious D1, Grady, DeLorean Motor Center, etc. But also a place called
DeLorean Service Center
400 Dublin Ave
Columbus OH 43215
Jerry Rine
Never heard of this place. Guessing it's now out of business. anyone heard of it or have any history /stories?

Ah nevermind. Further googling revealed its probably KAPAC or whatever they were calling it at the time. I had never heard of it refered to as DeLorean Service Center.

Yes, it is KAPAK(which is long gone). I've talked to Jerry Rine after receiving a tip from a friend who saw me with my Delorean, not too long ago....he acted very paranoid when I talked to him about all of the alleged parts he has. He told me they are for sale but that they would be too expensive for me to buy even though he knew nothing of me.
He has a gray area on his record when working there and afterwards regarding Deloreans and parts......
