I didn't get a chance to get under the car yesterday, should be able to later today.
I'll take a look underneath my car later this afternoon and get a better look. I've got a few different thicknesses of wood trim that I can use as a feeler gauge to see what kind of clearance is...
Otherwise, if you really want to know for sure you could press in the new bushings and ball joint just on one side and partially assemble the suspension to check clearance. You'd just need the upper...
I found some old photos from my suspension refresh. Looks like it'll be pretty close. Not sure what will happen to the clearance when turning the wheels either. Also, this is shown with the...
Some of that stuff is still available to buy NOS as well. I was recently at a car show/swap meet and bought a bunch of DMC literature. PJ's auto literature was the seller and they also have an ebay...
That's what she said.
It's complicated, and even after reading half a dozen press releases, I can't say that I fully understand. It would be great if someone from "DMC Classic" or whatever it's called now, would clarify...
It's baffling how they could have possibly thought any of this fake legacy timeline stuff was a good idea, especially right before the official launch of the Alpha 5 at Pebble Beach. They couldn't...
This whole fictional timeline of the DeLorean motor company is a confusing mess. None of those alpha cars look like they have anything to do with the original DeLorean brand, and this fake legacy...
:p
This should just about cover it:

Glad to hear you found one, but sucks it's so expensive.
You deserve a lot of credit for trying to fix what you had available from the start. I wish it would have worked out better given all the...
LOL same. But old BMW instead of lotus.
I went to the Iola Old Car Show in Iola, WI yesterday and picked up some auto literature and a few Dodge hubcaps. It's one of the larger car shows in the midwest and has a huge parts/swap area.

Hex head bolts are measured from the bottom of the head to the end of the fastener. Same is true for socket head cap screws, button head screws, etc. In general, you're measuring from the surface...
I finally ordered a set of these. Can't wait to get them installed. :woot:
I've been struggling to describe how I feel about the new DeLorean Alpha 5, but then it just kind of struck me that I don't really feel anything towards it at all.
It doesn't really look like a...
For uploading and posting full size photos within a thread it's a bit of a process.
If you click on your user ID, it'll take you to your profile where you can click on your albums.

Great thread so far! Don't let the drama and BS from facebook or anywhere else get you down. It sounds like you're on a mission, so do what makes you happy. It's your car after all.
Looking...

Hey! What's Phase 2?!
Spring has finally arrived, so last weekend my helper and I got the DeLorean out of winter storage and took it for a drive.

Did you get these vapor blasted? The parts look great!
April 2022 values are now posted on Hagerty's valuation tool. They changed the format, and now you have to have a paid membership to see back more than 1 year. Used to be that you could see back 5...
Even though our cars were built in Northern Ireland with an assortment of British, French, and American sourced parts, I have found that the Swedish made coolant vacuum evacuators work best, and are...
