Bttf III screen used B car where is it now???

[gasflaphoodfan95]

I have heard that the screen used B car was on display at planet Hollywood in Hawaii. But as of 2010 the planet Hollywood over there closed I am going to Hawaii later in July and I would like to know if it is still in hawaii or someplace else.

are you talking about the one that got run over by the train at the end that they hung from the ceiling?

Is that an actual DeLorean? Quite clearly in BTTF3 the car on the tracks exploded into a million parts. No way would they waste time piecing it back together for a display.

That is the car I am talking about

Didn't it move to another location in Hawaii? Probably the DeLorean moved with it ... Otherwise I would also like to know the wherabouts of this "car".

The Hard Rock Cafe closed in Oahu. I do not believe it is anywhere still in Hawaii. Probably in some storage area being guarded by "top men".

Yes it's an actual DeLorean and yes those are the actual parts. They didn't reassemble the entire thing, they just shaped (most of) the body panels back into their original position based on what was recoverable from the wreck site.

Notice how the interior is completely empty and bare-metal? Notice how the hood looks like aluminum foil? Now you know why.

from this thread (http://dmctalk.org/showthread.php?2800-Bttf-D-s-vins-and-build-dates):

This is what I have collected over the years. I'm missing a few VIN's, so someone could maybe fill in the gaps? And if there are faults in it, please let me know ...

From BTTF I:
[...]
- the B-car (VIN#.....) "Amblin Car" was stored at Amblin until 1989 when they used it for part II & III. It was fitted with heat shielding and fuel 'nozzles' for the 'tyre trail' flame scenes. It got fake hover wheels for BTTF II that were used when it was hovering behind Biff's car at ground level. Unfortunatly, it was destroyed by the train at the end of BTTF III. The body panels were reassembled and are on display at the ceiling in Planet Hollywood...

ive never been to Hawaii, but apparently the B car was hanging in the Honolulu Planet Hollywood. a quick google search reveals that location closed on April 18, 2010. i have no idea where the body panels have gone; but one could assume they either have them in storage or are moving them to a new restaurant.

we used to have one (maybe more?) forum member from Hawaii but i dont know if we still do after .com crash.

No one in the area to check it out? Maybe contact Planet Hollywood themselves? I'm a bit far away to check it out myself ...

[BTTF-1]

The guys at TemporalFX are the experts on the "Back to the Future cars":wave2: maybe they could help out.

Just a thought

The member now known as "Totally 80s" above - Hi Alex, good to hear from you again !

[dvonk]

Totally 80s = MauiBarber? (if i remember correctly)

i even searched the member list, but that would explain why i didnt find him. :lol:
