Wow I can't believe you read the whole thing... I was actually tempted to give you a call this weekend and see if you were around. I was out crusing around aimlessly and could have made the drive up to Wausau. I took some killer pics on Saturday at sunset. Woulda looked better with a second DeLorean in there :-D

Drove it from SEO Motorsports in Melbourne, Fl to my home in Dayton, OH - 1020 miles - in 16 hours straight through with zero problems.

Actual snippet of a conversation from Sept 2013:
Me: Eddie, I can't wait to get the car back when you're done with it.
Eddie: Yeah, you'll be able to give the car gas, and it won't be - like - embarrassing....

Serious forearm slashes, right?
I'm with Jon on this one.
If we're right you apparently didn't remember to first line those punched openings on the inner door panels generously with duct tape before you dove in.
Welcome to the Inside-a-D-Door Club. It's a hazing ritual, that one.
The good news is that, being stainless, the inner door opening edges weren't rusty. So you wouldn't have needed a tetanus booster this week.
