I have almost completed 1/3 of my foray to the land of the traveling sands. Can't wait to get back and get my D fully sorted out. I was trying to make a mental list of the things I would like to have done pretty quickly with my time off. This is what I was thinking so far:

Radiator and Fans replaced (need to purchase, recommendations?)
All hoses replaced (have a full set of silicon plus SS clamps from Delorean Chicago)
New door seals (Make her watertight again, need seals)
Marty's suspension adjustment mod (Need to work this out with Marty)
Full new European ride height suspension (need to purchase, recommendations?)
Suspension pieces reinforced/modified and powder coated (recommendations?)
Reglue Binnacle (glue is just getting weak)
Glove box LED light (Have it and all other lights have been switched to LED)
POR15 Valley of Death
POR15 any frame spots

I am hoping I can get with Jake and Marty to make sure I do all this stuff correctly the first time. Looking to take a few weeks off when I get back to sort through all this stuff. I will start ordering the items here shortly so I can get it all together and be ready to go!

Por-15 now comes in grey, not the same shade as the frame epoxy, but it's great to be close.

Also check if your wheels have any flaking or chipping, they are often overlooked when the cars are being fixed.

I would think you could get the answers to your questions from Rob at PJ Grady and he could also provide you with wanted parts.

Thanks for the replies. I have my grey POR15 and the spray paint that was recommended to make it nearly match the original epoxy color. I also forgot I have the DMC type Incolnel tabs for the rear suspension.
