Due to unfortunate circumstances, I need to sell my DeLorean. It's a Dec. 81 build, 5-speed with the flat hood. The odometer reads 42.7k, and I think that it is accurate. The frame is in very good shape. The car is very reliable, having just recently gone from Chicago to Colorado Springs with no issues.
First, the good:
I just recently got the car back from DMC Midwest where it had a huge amount of work done on it. I'd have to look at the invoices (which I don't have in front of me) but off the top of my head I'll list what I had done.
Suspension lowered and upgraded (also replaced/repaired everything in the suspension, including trailing arm bolts)
Radiator replaced with new design radiator
Cooling fans replaced with Toby's fan upgrade
Stage II performance done to engine, including stainless fuel lines and powder coated intake manifold
VOD cleaned out and cleaned up
Coolant system replaced with all silicone hoses
New alternator
Pretty much everything in the engine bay was repaired or replaced
Modernized relays
New tires
New brake master cylinder
The bad:
The front fascia is scratched up on the drivers side, but there was no collision damage or anything that I know of. The driver's side window is stuck partway down and the passenger side window is somewhat sluggish going up and down. The leather on the passenger seat is torn a little bit. The leather on both seats is old and stiff. I tried to restore it some but it didn't really turn out any better. The only big issue is the strut on the passenger side. The fiberglass is damaged in that area of the car. The passenger door works, but as you can see in the photos, doesn't quite lift up all the way. It should be easily fixed by any shop that is good with fiberglass.
I've posted some photos I took recently, and I'll try to get some more up in the next few days. If anyone has any specific areas they would like to see photographed, let me know and I'll get them posted here or in a PM.
I'm asking $22,500 or best offer. Please PM me if you have any questions.
Thanks
