I too Loved that car ! Matter of fact I owned a "Bradly GT" a kit car in a gunmetal flake body, also had gull wings. Glad DeLorean has an appropriate marker for his grave.

[@louskunt9798]

I still own my very first car. A 1979 Bradley GT-2. I’ve had it for just over 32 years now and I’ve amassed a number of entire Bradley parts cars for spares. I’m super stoked that you mentioned Bradley’s. The original GT was a cool ride. The GTII is always my favorite. Cheers!✌️

[@caseybertrand8035]

Another great one, they just keep getting better and better. Thank you, Chris!! Can’t wait to watch this one!

He was set up BIG TIME because he was a threat to the big auto manufacturers...

[@samanthab1923]

Yup

[@7531monkey]

Not everything is a conspiracy theory. He commited the crimes.

[@TheListOf]

@@7531monkey He was set up to buy the drugs. That's a conspiracy.

You made A Time Machine out of A Delorean????

While making the movie Ford offered a Mustang. Answer: Doc Brown don’t drive no Mustang 😂

[@jaybee9269]

DeLorean beat the rap…

[@soulsurvivor3067]

In the 80's a friend of mine owned a DeLorean. It was very cool to ride around in; it sat real low, the doors were very heavy as was the whole car, you felt cemented to the road. It was one of only two in the St. Louis area and was almost impossible to afford insurance for the car. Great memories.

[@1331RECIPROCITY]

I always liked it as well... The engine was underpowered... problematic.... The front plastic clip/grill didn't make sense, not making it out of S.S.. but the car is no doubt a piece of our history... Good video my man.. thanks.

[@juliebraden6911]

Yeah if you take out the cool factor, it's kind of a shit car.

[@nealanpaulaking9708]

These cars are awesome I've always wanted to own one

[@chriswinger7881]

wow thank you 😊 I didn't know he had a part in the GTO one of my favorite cars 😀 God bless you 🙏 stay safe

[@Carburetedofficial]

He was the CEO of Pontiac from the mid 50s to the 70s, before that he was at Chrysler then Packard, he was in Michigan a lot of his life, even went to Cass Tech Highschool in Detroit, explaining his rockstar attitude lol

[@tonybutler8811]

Thanks Chris, I enjoyed this short video to learn more about a man I never knew a lot about 👊👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@Bygos]

I loved him in BackToTheFuture

[@nms9]

Cool, you were a few miles away from my house when you took this. Great video as always!

[@pmccoy8924]

Same. My hometown.

[@louskunt9798]

Stop trying to make this about you. Have some respect. A man died here. Just kidding man! That’s pretty awesome that you live so close by. I think it would be cool to go see it in person. ✌️

[@jonz01]

Great video as always. There are a few Deloreans here in Houston that are very reasonable. 14k, 18k, 21k.

[@Defender-Guy]

It was a great car, but sadly it had the wrong engine. They tried adding a turbo, but it was too late. Mistakes were made for sure, but JZD deserves respect for doing what he did, following his dream and flying in the face of the big manufacturers. RIP, Sir.

Fun fact: John DeLorean used to listen to vinyl records of engines running. Yes, just running car engines for hours.

[@RichardHartness]

John Delorean was an absolute legend amongst men in his field. I'm 41 and I know it's considered cliché to love the DeLorean automobile because of it's iconic place in BTTF, but even without that facet of it's history, the man and the automobile were amazing and the definition of technological "disruption". I know he was embroiled in a lot of legal issues and acquitted of them. I have no clue if they were legitimate, or as the conspiracists think, used to muscle him out of the industry, but I think cars could be a lot more interesting and fun had John succeeded in his goals of making a successful, new automotive manufacturing company.

[@violettheorgangrinder]

DeLorean himself hated that movie so you're not a true fan

If the car hadn't been such a mechanical disappointment, I think it had a legit chance. It was though - so it didn't.

Weird fact: Ivana Trump is buried on his former estate in New Jersey, which is now Donald Trump's club.

[@samanthab1923]

Sad but true. Donald was always good of taking advantage of folks when they were down. Got the VA club much the same way.

[@MobileInstinct2]

I heard that!

[@DeLoreanTECH]

Well done video! Shared. Also - DeLorean prices seem to be dropping. It might be a small window of affordability or the beginning of a classic car value recession. Might be time to finally buy?

[@tashasmith6179]

@@MobileInstinct2 I wonder what he thought about the "back to the future" movie

[@georgehenderson7783]

@@tashasmith6179 In July 1985, John DeLorean sent a letter to the film’s directors, Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale, thanking them for “immortalizing” the DMC-12, calling the film “brilliant.” I assume he saw the trilogy or at least the first one.

[@MrHubbmuscle]

He was my neighbor and my father-in-law was his maintenance man as a retirement job. He was found innocent during the trial but his attorneys took all his money. He died penniless and then Trump bought his big NJ property through bankruptcy court

Fascinating. Even though I lived through all that cocaine controversy I always thought he rotted away in prison. I didn't realize he was acquitted of all charges, even the tax stuff. Seems he got a real raw deal, indeed. Think I'll go watch one of those documentaries now. Thanks for sharing!

[@bigjohnson9561]

Looks like they are going to manufacture new Deloreans in San Antonio,TX. Supposedly a new plant will be built at Port S.A.

[@dmcvegas2360]

He initially rejected being involved with the DEA in the sting until threats against his family were made. He was acquitted because he had absolutely nothing to do with any sort of drug deal. Even his attorney told him they would eventually leave him alone out of a rush to do business, but of course arresting him was the actual goal. They way the deal was structured, they (DEA) wanted him to invest in a narcotics purchase, but he couldn’t because he had no money. So the agents said they would front his share of the buy-in, then give him his cut minus their lending fees. So he never purchased drugs, never funded operations, and never did any sort of distributing and/or trafficking. Thus he had ZERO involvement in any drug operations and there was nothing to convict him over. The case didn’t just fall apart, there never was one to begin with.

[@violettheorgangrinder]

You didn't mention the fact that John DeLorean HATED the 'back to the future' franchise and the fact his car was used for it, REAL TRUE DeLorean fans also hate the franchise.

[@JackF99]

I recall when introduced the DMC 12 was a big disappointment but it became one of those cars where the subsequent backstories have made it a legend.

[@tababowe]

Great video! I always loved the design of the DeLorean. I also love your shirt! Second favorite, as ATHF is #1!

[@MobileInstinct2]

Haha definitely two of my favorites

[@Ganiscol]

Technically a piece of junk - but the design always appealed to me. The movie certainly boosted its iconic image.

[@billl1127]

I considered buying one in the 80s for collector purposes. Not having a proper place to store it, the apartment carport wasn't going to work, I decided not to follow through.

[@1927su]

Delorean designed the GTO also! Too bad the powers that be pushed him out!

[@christinedelman887]

Thanks for that Chris! I koved the DeLorean, too. A guy in my hometown owned one, it was so cool lol

Wow, how anticlimactic his headstone was from what I thought it was going to be. Great vids out of Michigan this week. Thanks again.

No one could buy that car at the time. They price was 25 thousand dollars

I watch your videos all the time! I actually just purchased my first Delorean back in June of this year. Between BTTF and the car itself, I've always been in love with it and could not turn buying one down when it fell into my lap. If you're ever in NE PA near Williamsport/Lewisburg area (right off interstate 80). I'd be glad to show you one up close!

[@psychcorp4449]

Not many people your age know about the Cosworth Vega. Great car. Good for you! I saw some information that an electric DeLorean is going to be made. As always, you are well-informed, honest, and down-to-earth. It is always a pleasure to watch your videos. Thank you so much. Stay safe and be well.

[@MobileInstinct2]

I want to get over there for sure. I've been seeing pictures of the abandoned test track and yeah I saw how the factory looks basically the same.

[@youchris67]

Delorean, while at GM--created one of the most awesome cars of all time and that's the Pontiac GTO in 1963 for the 1964 model year. Production of the original GTO was from 1964 to 1974. Thank you, John for your amazing contributions to the auto industry despite being set up for entrapment by the FBI in 1982. However, you won! Total acquittal on all drug charges. This means you were innocent!

[@no_handle_required]

Very unassuming grave. Almost sad.
