I spent some time looking at three Deloreans located in a warehouse in Alvin Texas. All three were gray automatics. All have grooved hoods and no gas flap. All have the clock that came with the ’81 cars. Apparently they were all purchased at or about the same time. The VINs are close to one another. Two have not been started since about 2003. One has not been started since about 2006. For all of them, except for headliners, they appear to be in pretty good shape cosmetically. I noticed no discernable dents, cracked windows or cracked binnacles. Two appear that they have been stored indoors for all of their lives and the other appears to have been outdoors a little but nothing severe. For all three cars, the struts, tires and headliners need to be replaced and the fuel system and fluids cleaned out and replaced. Probably the batteries need to be replaced also. Tires on them look okay (one was flat) but they will need to be replaced since they are several years old.
VIN 6190 is a gray automatic with 7,114 miles. It was last inspected in 2003. It has Yokohama tires. It has the plastic overflow tank. Interior was in pretty good shape. The headliner panels on the doors were removed for some reason but they were behind the seats.
VIN 6398 is a gray automatic with 31,628 miles. It has Goodyear tires on it but I don’t know if they are the original Goodyear tires or not. This car is the roughest of the three. Some minor cracking in the seats. The cable to the trunk is broken but the trunk was open. There appears to be some rust underneath but appears to be surface rust.
VIN 6642 is a gray automatic with 22,140 miles. It was last inspected in 2005. Has a grooved hood. The radio was replaced with a SONY but I didn’t see a cd player. It has a metal overflow tank. The exhaust tips have been replaced with the exhaust tips like the ’83s have. I didn’t notice any rust issues.
The owner would like to sell all three together. She hasn’t put a price on them but will take a “reasonable” offer for them. For more information contact Dennis at 832-640-5608.
The pictures are various pictures of the cars. I tried loading them on order of the VIN description above but I don't think they loaded in the same order.
One clarification - They would like to sell all three cars together but appear to be open to sell them individually. Give Dennis a call.
