    Yes it was totalled by insurance but it is repairable. They didnt pay me what it was worth. They just make their decision and that's it. So I'm hoping to make up for the loss here selling it.

    YES! It runs great. No damage to the engine. Sadly yes the labor cost to repair the bent frame up front was what was the reason insurance wouldn't repair it.

    The HH2 system infuses a form of hydrogen gas removed from distilled water into the combistion chamber that helps clean the exhaust and making the car run better. It can on many vehicles even improve MPG. It only requires an occasional small amount of distilled water to be added. Basically makes any car into a hydrogen-gas hybrid. Mine is the first DELOREAN ever to have it. Easily removed though.

    Man that sucks, I wish I had some extra money laying around. It looks like it was next to mine in the factory line.

    Perhaps another obvious question, but where is the car located?

    I don't always drive cars, but when I do, I prefer DeLoreans

    No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"
