    Kinda New Member Thought I post some of my Delorean.

    This is the Delorean that I got from its first owner (was my father).
    I was probably the last person to drive this car in 2002 and was stored in a Barn until my brother and I pulled it out. A couple of months ago.

    I have some way to go to get it back into a running and driving vehicle. But I'm happy to do it for myself and my dad.








    After home and a good 18 year plus wash. Still some way to go but hope to have it finished by spring of 2021.

    - OCT81 DeLorean DMC-12 Vin 5312 "DeLores"
    - 1978 Lotus Esprit S2 "Problem Child"

    Sorry, should have put that it is a 1982 5-Speed. About 11K miles.

    Today my son and I are taking the old fuel pump/sending unit out. Cleaning out the tank and pumping new gas through the fuel lines, just to clean them. Then we will put the new Delorean GM Fuel pump in.

    I also hope to take the intake off to look at the engine valley. And maybe do full maintenance on it.

    Here is an interior shot must not have taken to many.
