    DeLoreans on Display - AKA Museum DeLoreans

    (This used to be in the Resources section of the old forum, but I see that that area is now just for technical resources, so I am not sure where to put this. Same question for when Shannon posts his VIN Chronology - can we have a non-technical resources section?)

    Just in time for Vacation RoadTrips, here is the latest revision of the “DeLoreans On Display” a.k.a. Museum DeLoreans, a listing of places where you should be able to see a silver machine on display, whether you are travelling and need a DeLorean fix, or in your home town and need something to do.

    As always, thanks for the tips from various owners. Equally as always, could use some help confirming whether some of the museums still have a car on display, and identifying the VINs, of others. Particular areas are those in WI and TN and the new one added in Nebraska

    No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

    Thanks for posting, we will address the Resources section to include non-technical things like this.

    I would suggest giving them a call before you would do that. I don't remember where I got the info from but I have a ? against it in my notes. I think it was on the old forum. I tried emailing them to confirm but did not get a response

    I was just in Reno, NV last week & can confirm that the GOLD car, VIN 4300 is currently in the lobby of the museum. Very interesting to see this car & how the gold looks on the SS panels. (The museum itself has an AWESOME collection of really old cars back to 1890).

    I know the other gold car is in possession of a private owner in La Vale, MD.

    I can go check on the DeLorean at the Blackhawk Museum in California as I drive by it almost every week. The only problem is that they have 2 other storage facilities off site full of cars so it may or may not be in the museum at this time as they are always changing up the cars on display.

    I was last in Reno (with time to kill) about a month before I discovered that there was a gold D there Part of the reason of starting this list.

    Hard to believe, I know. The second gold car, 4301 had been there until it was moved to CA a few years ago. If you know of any more, let me know. (DMCH doesn't count )

    Please check if you can. A VIN number would be great. Even if you can confirm that they still have one in storage, that would be a partial confirmation.
