I'm jealous of you guys being able to get them out of storage already. The roads up here in WI is still covered in 1/4" of rock salt so it'll be a while before the rain has a chance to wash it away....

Pretty cool to see that tech procedure for adjusting the torsion bars. I've seen it done that way with the wooden jig by the guys at DMCMW when they re-secured my roof box to the fiberglass underbody...
I think it's just another sad stain on the DeLorean legacy. The real car and real company have a rich history, surrounded by enough controversy as it is. The Alpha 5 adds nothing of value and only...
Pretty sweet, I might have to pick one up.
One thing I noticed was that the underbody chassis plate still has the greeblies from the BTTF version of the car like the landing lights etc. They must...
I remember the good ol' days when DMCH's empty promises were for simple things... like Pontiac Solstice-DeLoreans, new binnacles, and lower ball joints that actually worked. Back then, common,...
I guess I phrased that poorly in my reply.
What I meant is that I would be hesitant to share a theory like this in such a way that presents it as fact, or could make someone believe that it's...
A likely possibility that the time machine restoration team has been aware of for years, but not in any way confirmed to be 100% true.
I would be hesitant to share any theory such as this without...
I've received scam emails from Nigerian princes that sound more legit than this load of absolute horse shit.
I got the car out of storage the other day for "spring" just in time to put it away for fall. I need to put enough miles on to at least burn through the old fuel before the snow flies again.

Thanks! Those look really nice, I appreciate the photos :-)
I was running those same DMCH LED's before I installed Tom's LED boards a few years back. They were working fine but it always bothered me how they were so close to the lens and only made a small dot...
I ended up trying my luck at fixing the board with a new LED. I picked up a few online for only $.39 ea. Got 8 each of red and amber so I had a few more as spares:

Old thread but I'm reviving it with a few questions.
First and foremost, I hope Tom is doing OK as his profile shows he hasn't logged in since January and his last post here was a few years ago....
To echo what Helirich said, it might be worth investigating if you can send it to your nearest DMC Vendor and they could finish reassembly and then sell it for you on consignment.
If you can sell...
I hope that's the case. Probably the most positive feedback related to their gloss black edition car they showed at SEMA was the larger wheels. My expectations for DMCH to follow through on anything...

Nice job on the reproductions, although my one bit of feedback would be that you replicated the wrong type of bottle. It should not have a necked section where the valve screws into the bottle.

Yeah that's a little scary to just have someone show up like that without a heads up first. It sounds like intentions were good at least. Hope it doesn't put too much of a damper on things for you...
I've been following along with your progress and especially enjoyed this latest video!
I can understand your feeling of astonishment that everything just worked following your months-long rewiring...
Congrats on the first engine start! I've been following along too and enjoy the updates. We're all rooting for you guys :thumbup:
Have you seen this thread? I'm not sure if the 3D PDF file linked there is still available, but I believe you could take some measurements off of it and get the dimensions you were looking for.

The inside of my clutch master looked similar to yours when I refreshed a bunch of stuff on my car back in 2012. I decided to just go with a completely new master cylinder from DMCH.
That being...
CONGRATS! Such a monumental moment in the history of this project finally seeing the body touch down on the frame. I'm happy for both of you, and hope this helps give you a boost in morale. You'll be...
The banjo fittings can be removed and refurbished/re-plated to make new fuel hose assemblies, so these used parts do still have some value.
Back in the early 2010's I had to return all of my used...
After recently selling out, Joost is now in the "Bro Down" phase of the startup plan.
