NEW owner, and new to DMCTalk...

[JAS037]

Hello everyone! I recently purchased 10591 from Mike at DMCMW. An '82, 5-speed with 6300 on the clock. The car has had many of the needed upgrades, and I'm currently having them install the Stage II engine kit and the Eibach suspension, as well as LED lighting in and out and several maintenance items before I take her home. Can't wait!

Congratulations and welcome to DMCTalk. You will find that the people on this forum and the DeLorean community in general are very helpful so don't be shy to ask questions, share restoration / upgrade photes, etc. if you have any questions about upgrades, parts, maintenance, etc. this is the place to be.

Is anyone planning on attending the open house at DMCMW on 6/17? I'll be heading up the day before and will pick up the car on that day, providing it's ready... This should be great fun! :yesss:

Beautiful car! Congrats on you purchase and welcome to the community!

[Lwanmtr]

Very nice looking car indeed.

Hello! Welcome!

I also got my car from Mike. As my old boss used to say "heck of a nice guy".

I'm going to the open house. Especially now that you've reminded me of it. I'll be the one showing up in a DeLorean.

[JAS037]

Well, the trip to Chicagoland to pick up the car went well. My wife and I did some sightseeing for a few days, then arrived with a U-Haul on Saturday for the open house and to bring the car home. Mike and Jason did a great job with all the upgrades. Unfortunately I did not get a chance to meet everyone there as so much time was taken up with test driving the car, final tuning of the FI, and lunch! I wish we had had more time, but need to head back to NC, so we left around 4PM. Attached are a few pictures of the afternoon. Meeting Stephen Wynne was great, and he graciously autographed my sun visor. Thanks again to Mike Jason, and Steve for the help in loading up the car! :worship: The last picture is in my driveway after two long days of driving!

Glad to see another in NC. You are a bit away from the "hub" of the NC club in Lexington where at least two tech sessions are held per year. You can find evidence of past events in the car show and events section here on DMCTalk or my Facebook page called North Carolina DeLorean Tech Session.

Yes, you are not right around the corner... The club needs to make a trip to the ocean!

Funny you mention that. I've been on vacation at Atlantic Beach for the past week now. But heading back tomorrow. Visited a DeLorean owner down here earlier in the week and scheduled to visit one in Raleigh tomorrow on the way back. I've had multiple owners drive from as far away as Louisiana to my tech sessions! Only about 4 hours for you, they are worth it! Anyway, enjoy the car!

[DaraSue]

Glad you had fun and are enjoying your new ride! Wish I could've made it out there but no way I was getting another week off in June, heh...
