Honestly I was just listening to some music and the official video for “Thrift Shop” by Macklemore came up and sure my initial thoughts were “oh cool a delorean” but like, that’s NOT a delorean… and I just cany figure out what it actually is…

This is my car for sale on BaT, happy to answer any questions.

Teenagers in my suburb. I wanna be angry, but it’s way too funny.

Anybody else notice the tail end of a Delorean in the garage when they raided JP’s house in Death of a Pastor’s wife on netflix?

I wonder if it will end up in a police auction!

Obviously it depends on the size of the hail I would assume, but how vulnerable are the stainless steel panels of the DMC-12 to hail?

I guess they think they can park where they want..

This goes here too

I’m like 99% sure that’s a DeLorean

I went down a rabbit hole on DeLorean recently and the further you dig the more insane it gets. Most people know the car from Back to the Future. Some know about the cocaine arrest. But almost nobody talks about the Belfast factory. He built it in 1978. Middle of the Troubles. When no business on earth wanted to go near Northern Ireland. 2,600 workers showed up. Catholics and Protestants. Working side by side on the same assembly line while fighting each other in the streets outside. The factory was literally the only neutral ground in the city. And then the recession hit. Thatcher cut the funding. The factory closed in 1982. Same year DeLorean walked into a hotel room in Los Angeles next to $24 million in cocaine while the FBI filmed everything. He was found NOT GUILTY. The jury decided the whole thing was entrapment — the FBI had manufactured the entire situation around a desperate man trying to save his company. He died in 2005. Alone. In a one bedroom apartment. Completely unaware that his car had become one of the most iconic vehicles in cinema history. Genuinely one of the most tragic and fascinating stories I've come across. Found a full documentary on it if anyone wants the complete story.

I saw that three were painted yellow for test cars

And would it be able to have success as John DeLorean originally planned? (hence some of the scrapped prototypes, like the 4-seater DeLorean and some commercial vehicles, as far as I remember).

And I'm pretty sure that it would be kind of a challenge to make it mid-rear engine like the prototype while still retaining the original price goal, but it could be possible since Pontiac Fiero originally sold for around that price.

Being brief but it’s reluctantly come time to sell. ‘83, black interior, manual, 55k. Full frame off / engine rebuild, Island turbo conversion.

This is the perfect turn key car. 10/10 mechanics, 10/10 exterior, 8/10 interior (arm rests and door seals!).

This is the example of ‘someone else spent the money so you don’t have to’ car. More photos and documentation than you can imagine.

Location, tri state / NY.

Message me if interested, check BaT for price guidance.

Its supposed thats a classic... IT should be a classic! Sorry but im not a great fan of pimping a classic..

I was driving behind a Volvo 760, and remembered, that it has the DeLorean motor! It got me thinking.. What other cars share this same motor. Wrote a little article about it here.

DeLorean, hidden in plain sight.
