Nice Ride Brian

[@aorton7829]

Loved hearing what you guys have going on!

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Lots going on yet a typical week. Thanks for watching!

[@JakeBaldino]

I'd watch regular shop updates if you can provide. great stuff!

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

I could definitely see this becoming a regular update video. I'm impressed by the work the current staff is cranking out. Great team! Thanks for the feedback Jake. Means a lot considering your experience!

[@peternicolaskinner8817]

Always enjoy seeing what you and the team are working on Mike. Would be great to have someone like you open a service centre in New Zealand!

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Peter thank your for always being supportive. Noticed and appreciated.

[@91lifetime23]

Would have liked to see those halo headlights

[@coppert4nk]

I absolutely love this video. Thank you for sharing a glimpse of some of the cars in your shop! It's nice to see the unique touches some folks have on their car after spending a day working on my own.

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Glad you enjoyed the video. I love to hear your working on your own! Keep it going!!

[@kurtlipanovich8576]

Looking forward to seeing mine!

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Josh and I are looking forward to meeting you!

[@AdmiralSenn]

Would have liked to see some closer shots of those black wheels. Always love seeing what people find for these cars - even the styles that aren't for me. Glad to see you guys are busy and I love seeing the LS swap program has some takers! Now, if only you'd let me buy an upgraded rear brake kit...

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Thanks for the feedback. Wheels will probably be for sale soon. I'll post better photos.

[@kabirhussain9418]

Can I come visit the shop tomorrow?

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Happy to give a walk around if you schedule in advance in a weekday.

Got excited when I saw my car in the background lol

Nice!

Needs more Josh Schattenkirk

He keeps hiding.

@@michaelmcelhattan7238 I saw him on screen for a second or so.

[@b00ys24]

where do I get one and for how much

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

DeLorean Midwest sells and services these cars. Good drivers range in the $60 to $80k range.

[@martynreed835]

Good stuff. I brought my car (6064) as a running basket case project from Dave back in 2010. Would you still sell this type of car or would you just restore it now?

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Hi Martyn! We do still sell projects. How is 6064 doing today? Best to call about projects available! Thanks

[@martynreed835]

@@michaelmcelhattan7238 thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I had to sell it because I needed to buy a home. Needs must. The current owner had it converted to electric and is fitted with a tesla engine as featured on the UK TV series vintage voltage. I'm hoping to buy another in the future as my circumstances will be changing shortly.

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

@@martynreed835 Neat story on the car. Great you were able to get a home. Reach out when your ready for another D. Happy to help you find another.

[@martynreed835]

@@michaelmcelhattan7238 yes it's definitely a special car. If you search KZbin you should find the episode where it was converted. Thanks and when the time comes I'll get in touch. Keep the content up. I enjoy watching your videos from over the pond 🇬🇧

[@williamrmeara2162]

Just curious: What is the significance of the plate on Brian's car? CONTRA4?

[@vintagecrazyjay4970]

Who do you recommend for enclosed shipment from OK to your location? Thank your for your time.

[@cpear760]

So, you do LS swaps there?

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Yes. New offering as of August 2022. Added Josh Shattenkirk "the LS guy" to the Midwest team. His focus is on upgrades and swaps.

[@cpear760]

@@michaelmcelhattan7238 Nice, TY😎

[@johnkinville]

Do the signs hanging off the rear view mirrors of each car reflect its vin #?

[@deloreannation]

No that is the repair tag number

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Tag number as explained already. We started with #1 16 years ago. Almost to 1200 service tickets now.

[@rdm20fan]

@@michaelmcelhattan7238 that’s a lot of cars for a unique specialty shop. Around 80 a year and most of the time with 1 master tech? Wow

[@fstnfurz]

I’m just curious Matt’s car. The steering wheel where can I get one?

[@IcelanderUSer]

Can the delorean engine be moved forward to create a true mid engine? Is there room?

[@kotka7203]

wanna own one so badly. any advice to a guy in his 30s?

[@Justin-General]

Are there DeLorean's there available to buy? Or do you only work on them for other people?

[@deloreannation]

Hey Justin. We offer both sales and service. You can check our DeLorean Midwest website for current listings of available cars.

[@rdm20fan]

How do you fix the roof box?

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

3 day job. Remove doors, remove old roof cage, install a new stainless cage, replace doors. Simple!

[@rdm20fan]

@@michaelmcelhattan7238 doesn’t sound that simple. New stainless cage sounds like the right fix though. 👍

[@rdm20fan]

What’s hiding on the lift under the cover?

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Best TA ever made!

[@rdm20fan]

@@michaelmcelhattan7238 second best!

[@theanimeotaku2794]

How much do you sell those cars for?

[@michaelmcelhattan7238]

Prices vary depending on condition or course. Most fall in the $50k to 80k range.

[@darrelljacobjr2120]

That is why when I get my new shop built, (and I've been wanting a Delorean time machine forever), I'll be building a frame and a fiberglass body myself. I doubt I could afford even the junkiest rusted rotted Delorean in your collection. I live my life building everything, still living like it's the 80's. (except for computers, tech, and great welders). I'd love to own a DeTomasso Panterra but probably will never be able to afford one.@@michaelmcelhattan7238

[@therabbitswhisper]

You should make an electric version.
