    Been through this before, with almost every project, plus the Discovery Channel shows.

    Interesting choice of words in the meme. One could answer with the following:

    Some men put out the fire and make the car into a Roadster.

    Some men look at a damaged car and only see the Parts.

    Some men make a comment before knowing the whole story.

    Thankfully, most FaceBook folks have short attention spans.

    This too shall pass.

    I wouldn't worry about "bad press" from people who think the only "real" DeLorean is the one from Back to the Future.

    I say keep on keepin' on, Rich!

    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"

    Wasn't it a crap DeLorean that Rich saved from almost certain destruction?

    Yes.

    Even if it was a pristine car, some might say that creating a unique convertible roadster following the designs laid out by the original company is a much more worthy achievement than yet another BTTF replica.

    +1 for Rich. There are literally DOZENS of BTTF conversions out there (good, bad, or otherwise). There is only ONE DMC Roadster.

    That's true originality and it should be celebrated.
