Popped up on Craigslist today. Just wanted the community to know about it in case someone has been dreaming of a complete restoration project.
(BTW - went to the Delorean Car Show in Orlando a couple weekends ago...man, really gave me the fever to own one-maybe one of these years)

I'm tempted to buy this because it's a nice stock of parts on a VIN that's close to my own. And it's pretty cheap.

Cool long term project!
At least with that one you would have something to look at every once in awhile. Man I need to get a job so I can afford one of these babies!!

I've emailed the seller. I might actually go through with this one.
I figure I can disassemble the thing and keep a parts stock in a storage unit somewhere. Considering this is an October '81 build and my car is also an October '81 build, this would be a really good backup for me.
Thanks for posting.

In my case it's more like "massive disassembly required" and who gives a shit about the battery.Originally Posted by Dangermouse

Glad that it is getting some looks. I know if I had the cash and was looking for a project I would be all over this. I figured, though, this is going to take an owner or someone with a close friend or mechanic in order to take advantage of this project.
I do have a friend (Jai) with on.e..but he isn't local same I am more of a styling/body guy...no mechanic.

I'd be tempted too if it wasn't so far from me... great parts car and mine's an OCT. '81 too. That driver's side front fender would be great as mine is dented. Could use the driver's side door too... Mine is warped.
If you buy it would you be willing to part some of it out?

It looks like we might be fighting over this deal. I just made the guy a cash offer and am waiting for his response.
