Brief history: This is a one owner car. With an October <strong>1981</strong> build date. It was properly maintained since day 1 and has had the majority of the<br />
common issues with <strong>Delorean</strong>s worked out (i.e. power windows motors, faded bumpers, fuel pump, door handles, etc). I will attempt to describe as<br />
accurately as possible and I have also included a lot of pics to back everything up.<br />
The Body and Frame The body is in great condition. The steel looks very good and still shines very nicely. There are a few minor dings in the body,<br />
but nothing terrible. The bumpers were recently repainted using the correct <strong>Delorean</strong> paint codes. The doors sit up with out any issue as the struts<br />
were replaced recently using parts purchased from Special-T Auto. The door handles were replaced with the new plastic units from Special-T Auto.<br />
The frame of the car is rust free and in very good condition. The underneath of the car is in very good condition and looks well kept. I will tell you<br />
this, the frame is very straight and free of rust. It is straight and without any issue under there. RUST FREE!<br />
Interior: The seats are original and in VERY good condition. The carpeting is in fine condition as well. No major stains or tears. The clock works, as<br />
does the radio. The cargo net located behind the seats is present and in good condition. The only real issue with the interior is the dash is cracked<br />
(see pictures). I bought a dash cover for the car and it covers it up. The power window motors have been replaced with the updated units from<br />
Special-T Auto and the power window switches were just rebuilt, as well. The AC and Heat work. There is also a period correct Radar detector<br />
installed along with the bumper mounted radar detecting unit. Its so 80's-cool that I did not have the heart to remove it.<br />
Motor and Running Gear: The 2.8 Liter PRV V6 is in fine condition. It runs very smoothly and idles right under 1000 RPM's. The motor was given a<br />
tune up about a month ago with an oil change, new spark plugs, wires and the coolant flushed. The fuel filter and pump were replaced with units<br />
from Special-T Auto and the car runs brilliantly for it. The brake pads were replaced as well, with units purchased from Special-T Auto. The battery is<br />
new. The car starts up every time and does not smoke or make any odd noises. Its a blast to drive and can't help but gather attention wherever it<br />
goes. The transmission goes in and out of gear smoothly with all 5 gears and synchros working without any issue. The clutch grabs and there is zero<br />
slip.<br />
