    My VIN:    17099

    I met the guy at the Lancaster showing of BTTF last week. I was trying to track him down as well. I talked with him on Saturday and told him I'd bring my DeLorean by on Wednesday's showing. When I came by, he was inside the movie theater.

    He's located in Palmdale.

    That is just wrong. "I like BTTF and Knight Rider, but I only have room for one car".

    There was a thread about a year back showing it was a photoshop. It's not even a BTTF conversion, just a regular black DeLorean that someone photoshopped the BTTF parts (and the knight rider front as well) onto. I believe Accipiter is the one that showed the original.

    I don't know who's it is but I can tell you it is not one of mine.
    The bands on it appear to be rusting? Could be steel mesh, or just dirty?
    I only use aluminum.
    Also, speaking of the bands, notice how they are not uniform and the bends have what I call the "pork chop" effect,
    my bands are perfectly uniform throughout, even in the bends.
    There are two silver boxes on the rear behind the green tubes, those should be rectangular, the one's on this car are square.
    I could point out a lot of other things but I don't want to come off as negative as though I am picking the car apart and knocking it,
    I am simply noting the differences in the way I build my cars and the way this one is built.
    It's always fun to see a Time Machine out in the wild!

    Just my two cents: I know you're not trying to come across badly, but IMHO, this part of the post:

    Would've more than sufficed. No need to pick apart someone else's hard work, especially if it's a DIY job.

    You're right, that is the more ambiguous way to do it in a diplomatic way.
    I wanted to explain a few differences in how I build my cars, so people can tell, but it's always going to be hard I guess.

    Looks pretty damn good to me! Just needs to change the mesh so it doesn't rust up but other than that, nice!!
