    Project VIN 1255

    Hello fellow D-ovners

    Here is a small video of my DeLorean project and where i'm at, at this moment.

    The car came to Denmark in 1989 and has been sitting in warious garages since then, and hadn't really run all those years. I was told that it had a startup about 5 years ago. I'm the third owner in DK now and i'm bring it back to life.

    Thanks

    Plan for the engine before I will attempt any start up is:

    Sparkplugs, new filters, v-belts, new oil, check of all hoses, probably new hoses on the injection. Then I will try to start it and do a compression test.

    I'm taking it a little step by steb. Now the brakes ar working, and i'm able to push the car outside when i need the workshopspace for my other car. the fuel line is clean and ok from tank/pump to filter right now, and cooling system is on the way as you see.

    I will upload a dias show (and post a link shortly) so you can see a few more pics of what I've done so far.

    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"
