1265's Restoration Progress

[Dracula]

Awhile back, I decided to purchase a second DeLorean to have rebuilt from the ground-up in a manner most suiting to my personal taste. That car was 1265. With no motor or transmission and midway through the process of being converted into a 5-speed car, I took ownership of her. Now she's going to be rebuilt as a cruiser AT car.

First are a few "Before" pictures:

And here are a few to show where she's currently at:

All the work on this car is being performed by Josh of DPI, with the exception of the few mystery projects that I'm toying around with.

Frame has been baked to remove the E coating and to expose trouble sections and blasted prior to the repairs being completed.
