What have you done to your DeLorean today?

Got the proper idle motor hose installed and for the first time in 3ish years got the car out and drove it around town.

First, search around this forum - there are a few threads on the wheel cleaning topic here.

This link is to one of the larger ones.

Second, a few of the posts there point to using a foam paint brush (with your fave wheel cleaner spray) between the spokes. This works well on mine.

Two extra tips:
- I like to do this job with the wheels off so I can set them nearly flat on a table in the shade outside.
- Try to clean the wheels more often so you only need to remove a thin film of dust, not a lot of gunk. This tip comes too late in your case. Another reason to get the wheels into a proper work location for a few hours of fun. With Q-Tips for the tough spots.

I pressure washed the wheels today. Looks a lot better but still needs something to get it really cleaned between the tight spokes. Solvent on a Q-tip works but that would take weeks of work. Mine have never been cleaned as long as I have owned the car so mine may be worse than most.

What do you all use?

And drove it to work and back. Wondered how it would handle on the freeway. It worked out those flat spots from sitting by the time I was almost back. I was drenched when I got home thanks to no AC, but the new radiator and fans are keeping the temps really low which is great.

Now just waiting for the shipping company to pick it up for the long trek back east.

Got the car inspected again after hand brake and fuel leak fix. It's now street legal again for another 2 years! (Older than 30 years is only inspected every other year in Sweden)

After literal years of brainstorming and putting the whole project off, I officially completed my 10" Touch Screen Vent-Swap Mod. The airflow from the center stack is actually improved sans the removal of the rubber plenum sleeves. While there was a lot of fabrication involved, this ended up being very painless in the end.

Live the dream dammit

Oh, that looks really good!! I think my center console is going to end up looking very similar!

Rolled out my completed, refinished and reassembled chassis out of the garage today. Been over a year since I removed it from the body. This is for the Mongoose DeLorean, which is why the suspension is not stock, if you noticed. I had the frame painted satin black over the factory epoxy, which was first sandblasted, repaired, modified, and cleaned. Enjoy.

I had a coolant leak a few weeks ago and finally go in to see Toby and DSNW. This turned into a VOD refresh, Tune up, new hoses, and new radiator.

Runs so much better now.

Nice looking frame Mark! You need some billet LCA action ;-) I love mine.
