I wonder where they found the big Haynes schematic of the car?

Hi Brian,

The following are the type I have been using for the past decade (and the one's Chris N. uses when he is here).

Scotch Brite Pads: 3M #7446, Coarse – Dark Grey (available through a number of different suppliers found online)

Thanks Rich! I'll pick up a few pads and get on the regrainin' sometime soon. I appreciate the info!

As you now know Domi, something we created with Haynes for the programme, for anyone who has not seen it yet hears the topic on our forum: http://deloreans.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=5338 We also have the iconic image from the Haynes manual book fronts available on T-shirts as well: http://deloreans.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=5336 or through Ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2615211118...84.m1555.l2649

Yes, really nice poster of the car.
Every owner should have one in their garage

I just watched this whole episode, and really enjoyed it! Not too many BTTF jokes, well researched, good footage, and good personalities. They were fair with the car and JZD. Even got an interview with Kathryn. I thoroughly enjoyed watching the one guy go from curmudgeon about the car to giddy schoolboy at the end. Haha.

Now I have to watch the other episodes.

When I was over in England earlier this year, I saw an episode that featured another oft-maligned car, the Triumph Stag. They were similarly respectful and enthusiastic, and I was really impressed by the show. I'm glad to hear they treated the D the same way.

I got a text from a friend in the UK about a week and a half ago, saying he just saw the replay of the show, during Prime Time, back on Sunday, Sept. 14th.

The reviews have been generally favorable, but unfortunately, some old myths still persisted in the show, even though they could have been easily corrected.

True. I guess I'm just so used to hugely gross inaccuracies about the car and JZD, so when a show like this only has a few I'm pleasantly surprised!

Over the holidays, I was doing a little surfing and I came across a few Behind-the-Scenes video clips of the D Rex,
made into animated GIF's, that were filmed during the For the Love of Cars - DeLorean show in December 2013.

I could identify the video shoot by the type and number of Go Pro cameras that were attached to the D Rex and
the lack of leaves on the trees in the video shots. It was 70 degrees that day and only 7 degrees, 48 hours later.

Not sure who shot these video clips or who posted them.
