    The punishment is as follows: 10,000 Internet points shall be deducted from James' account and placed in Derek's account until such time when Robert Zemeckis and/or Bob Gale register here. At that time all Internet points will be awarded to the rightful heirs...and the only ones who have a legitimate right to get all bent out of shape over this.
    Haha Michael, I appreciate that laugh on this otherwise not-so-great day. I needed it.

    James, I wasn't "angry" or anything in the slightest, just glad to see that pic getting re-used.

    So I contacted the owners about this and this is what they said...

    "Haha!
    I can’t believe how fast a BS story can travel, now I just need to get our advertising to perform like that! On February 1st we actually moved out of our office, and into a new one about 3 miles down the road.
    We had a nice indoor parking spot where the car was protected, so the plan was to leave it there for a week until we received a door pass for the new spot. Unfortunately the people at the old building didn’t see it that way,
    and decided to call the police about an “abandoned car”! Believe it or not, they told the police that they didn’t know who owned it, and that it had been there for 2 months. Anyway, the guys with the flatbed were
    nice enough to find an invoice with my number on it, and call me rather than bring it to an impound lot. So that’s the big story……the car is safe and sound again! -Graham"

    Sounds like it's back with the original owner. That's great to hear. Great ending to a very strange story.

    It was a black auto I picked up locally, VIN SCEDT26T1BD006462.
    or is it 04481 according to your FB album of the build?

    Cool story, though.

    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"

    (while I'm STILL working on getting that one off the lot across the street from you, but getting sooo close)
    I can tell you from personal experience that fighting for two years to get your first Delorean is wholly a worthwhile experience.

    It's been about 20 years on and off- we're close now because I finally found one (by shear fortune) that I was able to whittle the owner down a lot. But I can see the finish line and can't wait to get started on the rebuild and eventually driving it.
