Miles is hosting a Cruise-In at one of the Sonics he manages.
Kat and Crew are planning on attending while in town to promote their STEM program.

A few YEARS ago I signed up to be put on an email list with updates on the "new delorean" (not sure which iteration, definitely before the Alpha) and to this day, still... not one, single email with...
Impressive but not as impressive as it could be, I just wish their high milage was done on the original engine. They are on their 2nd engine.
Love seeing driving pics of the views out west.
Your odometer looks just like mine!
Except there is an non existent "2" to the left of my number "5" :-)
The dude knows stuff and different build details, but then still says things like:
"... parts are difficult to come by..."
"this is the speedo, it only goes up to 80" (while pointing at the...
I still have mine. It is bent and flaking too. Haven't died yet. :-)
Yes, look'n really great. Nice work!
I love making up swear words but don't enjoy the reasons associated with making them up :-)
What verse reference is that on the Mrs's "Courage" tattoo?
Bauerle is a great guy!
He is hosting the Camp DeLorean event in Sandusky OH Sept 15-17. Give him a call for more info.
Regarding "the ring/gasket at the steering column..." are you talking...
I didn't know Darryl made any with bearings in them. Yeah, I would guess you would easily feel notchiness when moving while raised off the ground. Are they sealed bearings or could some road junk...
With all your "new" parts, did you put on new steering u-joints (both upper and lower)?
I had same issue as you are having (a couple of times) and it was my original u-joints. I cleaned them a...
Just ran across thearsenale.com site and they are offering the Salvage to Savage DeLorean for only $265,000.

What did they say about the wooden crate, or lack there of?
Was the missing crate an error or did they say that 'cardboard is a form of paper, paper is a form of wood therefore it is a crate'?...
Yeah, your not alone. Mine has been off for years. That clip doesn't seem to hold. I just tucked up and attached with zip ties to stop rattling. Easy enough to cut zip ties to move if/when I need to...
Thanks for the photo.
Always learning something new about these cars. :-)
I guess every T panel I took off, or help aligned, or torsion bar adjustment was NOT an early panel as I never have seen a...
OK, I'm ignorant on this. In all my years of ownership and before that being a fan I have never heard of T-panels being early or late VINs. What are the differences?
Double True.
They may not be perfect cosmetic condition but most of the bugs tend to be worked out over the years because they were driven.
My car freaks alot of people out because I still...
I do not believe there is an adaptor anywhere for sale - unless one has been done recently and only advertised on the FB groups.
Most of the conversions I've seen or helped with are just custom...
I'd have to check my records but I haven't changed my fuel filter in at least 10years. Well over due. But I put on between 9k - 13k miles a year. I still get 23-29mpg depending upon how I drive. So I...
I installed the Borgeson a couple years ago. My u-joints were worn and sticking. I have cleaned and greased the originals a few times and they were not good anymore. The Borgeson unit is way better...
I signed up for "new delorean" info years ago. So far, nothing emailed to me.

So these "official" DMC shocks are lock collar too correct?

My shocks are Grady's of the same era. They use a "2210" bushing.
You can probably find what you need from Energy Suspension after taking some measurements of the opening in your shock.
This is...
You can say that word here too, as long as it is cussing and not in reference to your Lord and Savior. :-)
I get that and appreciate it. Just so esoteric I had no idea it existed.
