New owner gets DeLorean delivered from DMC Florida... Delivering the Dream!

[@billymania11]

Excellent. DeLoreans have such a cursed history but are still notable cars. Glad to see it back on the road.

[@brittsjournals]

But Where we're going, we don't need roads

[@lemonjellies4985]

There's nothing like owning a DeLorean such a super unique car. I will never own one but I feel happy watching others enjoy theirs.

[@leecollins5479]

they still look like a modern car.i would love one some day

We recently did another "delivering the dream" type video with a turn-key car from DMC Midwest, delivered to a Southern California new owner again. Somewhat different story but same result -- another happy owner who did not fork over his life savings for living the dream. This one will be coming soon!

[@psbnighthawk6676]

DMC Florida has mine right now. Time to get an update on its progress. Needs the front fascia replaced, the AC gone through, and as with all DeLoreans, some electrical work.

[@AsianFlew]

I used to see one in a used car lot. It was there for some time so it may have been like the first one you bought with a bunch of problems, but man, I stared at that car every time I drove past and wanted it so bad. Congrats to you! Any chance you could make some "special modifications", and go back and warn your previous self about that first car?

[@jerryperry1788]

This car is will always be an 80’s iconic vehicle.

A unique looking vehicle

[@ItsTimePictures]

Every once in a while I see a DeLorean here in Craven County North Carolina. How I wish I could come across it parked so I could track down the owner and ask to look at it.

[@TheSaabClinicUK]

One thing i noted from the video is that the rubber bonded engine mounts are rotten. Get these changed out asap, or the PRV V6 will try to lift and just Rip the driveshafts out. Ask how i know....

[@retro9173]

Anyone looking in purchasing a DeLorean, I highly recommend on getting The Illustrated Buyer's Guide to Delorean Automobiles. A book straight from a true insider and author James Espey!

[@ChurchKeys]

ALL that attention to detail and they give him a car with a blown passenger taillight @13:12 😅 But nice ride and the new owner seems like a responsible and respectful collector. GG.

[@presicion25]

Mine was #6720 (If i remember correctly) and went to California in 2009 after I sold it. (The following is my opinion): These cars are WAY overpriced nowadays (regardless of inflation which is already inflating prices anyway). I paid $21k in 2007 and mine was in excellent condition. Now they go for well over 30k which is a ripoff and especially from a place like DMC Florida or any other "dealer" which jacks up the prices. Just my opinion. Enjoyed the video though. Nice to see people still enjoying these cars.

[@DeLoreanTECH]

I agree the prices are through the roof on DeLoreans. However right now it's a seller's market. The reason why the prices are so high is because of high demand and people are willing to pay that much. Kinda like the housing market in California! Today $30K for a running turn key DeLorean is a bargain. You are looking at more like $45-50K, even more depending on condition and upgrades.

[@presicion25]

@@DeLoreanTECH I actually still have a couple of leftover parts. A backboard (the carpeted piece that goes behind the seats in the cargo area), a sewable patch that goes on a hat or shirt, Trailing arm bolts, a identification sticker set and some other part I can't identify. I was in the Florida club back when it started.

Happy for you brother, I felt the same way about my Pontiac Fiero wanted one for years and the first one I bought was a 1984 and it burned oil big time!!! Lol drove that for 1 year and was disappointed big time a few years later I didn't give up on it and I bought a 1987 GT and loved every Dame second of it. Drove it for 4 years everyday rain or shine, snow or fall, and now my brother has it as I gave it to him once I started a family but it's been in the family now for 21 years and I still get to drive it a few times a year and it still puts a smile on my face!!!!

Wow! Congrats on the purchase; I am so jealous. I would love to own one some day. Apart from refurbishing original vehicles, is it true that DeLorian also make the car brand new from scratch - made to order?

[@DeLoreanTECH]

They can actually but the VIN would need to exist first -- so essentially start with an existing car and replace EVERYTHING on it just about with New Old Stock parts...frame, body, engine. It's all possible. Just need $$$. "New" DeLoreans are coming in the future when the low-volume car manufacturing laws take effect!

Why would you get a stainless steel coolant tray instead of transparent where you can actually see what is happening to the liquid.

The plastic ones are a common failure point. The cars are nearly 40 years old and those bottles are fragile and will crack.

You can still check the coolant level in the car easily with the SS bottle.

[@mmowins1140]

Even when the plastic ones were new they were prone to failure. It's was an easy swap/"no brainer", and at least back then it was a bit more stainless bling (to the vast majority).
