1981 DELOREAN-STAGE II, AUTO , STALL SPEED CONVERTER ETC W/ FRONT END/DOOR DAMAGE
The car was a life-long dream come true that I lived for 3.5 years. I will miss it. I already do. It was sadly in an accident that caused damage to the front end including the fenders. The gas flap hood has a slight bend in it on the passenger side hood which may be able to repaired by skilled hands. It also damaged the drivers side door separately. Prior to the accident the car was in tip top shape and was appraised for $60,000. It has approximately 34,000 original miles on the car, but only about 25,000 on the upgraded stage II engine and 15,000 on the newly installed transmission with a stall speed converter for a little more off the line. It was really upgraded nicely and has a custom black leather interior dash and first of its kind in a Delorean 5.1 Channel Alpine Digital Surround sound system with bluetooth and iPod / iPhone connector and video display designed and installed by Danny Botkin at Delorean in Garden Grove, CA. All of which can be transferred to another Delorean. It is custom, but it looks like it is stock and blends in really nicely. Danny and Don do amazing work. It also has sound deadening material for reduced road noise, lowered sport suspension, etc etc. It even has a $1600 HH2 Hydrogen Hybrid exhaust cleaning system that is easily removed if you don't want it. Fireball Tim and Jay Leno have had that system installed on cars.
Danny and Don have all the records on the work done on the car except the HH2 which I have. But they can get you virtually any information you need. The number for Delorean is 714-554-6794.
I have far more money into the car than it's $60,000 appraisal, but because of the damage that is not worth the repair cost, I am willing to let it go for $15,000 OR BEST OFFER plus your cost to pick it up. The car includes the Stage II currently valued at $5000 and the auto transmission currently valued at $2000, not to mention the $1600 HH2, and the thousands of interior and stereo work and the parts on rest of the car.
If I don't sell the whole car I am willing to hear offers on the major parts including the engine and transmission, but I don't wish to be low-balled. It is a quality car despite the damage and the remaining individual parts are worth FAR more than I am asking.
I am in no hurry to sell it and I can wait, but if your really serious about buying it, make me an offer contingent on clearing it with Danny Botkin. But please no looky-loos. I don't have the time.
Please contact me, Shawn, via email at [email protected] rather than posting here as it is easier for me to respond that way. Please be patient for a response.
I thank you for your courtesy and understanding and I look forward to hearing from you. Make me an offer and the worst I can do is say no.
Thank you.
