What have you done to your DeLorean today?

It used to be that many of the clubs had a "community jig" and they would do torsion bar adjustments at tech sessions. I've seen it used at a Minnesota MNDMC meet in the past, and I believe my Dad and I even made a partial version of it over 20 years ago to do a quick adjustment to one of my bars way back in the day but I forgot all about it (when I showed my dad this picture he reminded me of it). It's not strictly necessary, I've assisted with adjustments before without it but the nice thing about this jig it allows the second person (breaker bar holder) to stand on the other side of the car so he's not in the way of the other person struggling with the spline plate.

Dennis will bring his jig to the Orchard if we need it.
He helped detorque mine a few years ago.

That's great, I went to the Orchard every year until I moved to Kansas City about 12 years ago. Maybe I should show up at the next Apple Orchard event this fall!

Installed a custom plaque above my newly installed NOS ASI radio (which runs through the input of a modern headunit behind the driver seat, so I get the best of old and new technology).

Got rid of your touch screen?

The below is a work in progress but successfully tackled the technical hurdles of having a carplay system with a custom UI that can control GPIO pins of a Raspberry Pi.

I did! It was starting to get a little bit too outdated, apps weren’t supported anymore, etc. I had been wanting to go for a retro look and decided the ASI running through the hidden Sony headunit behind the seat checked all of my boxes. Can still use hands free calling, CD, Bluetooth, USB C, etc.
