  AC check over before recharge
Posted by: Mich1958 - 04 Jul 2022, 21:41 - Forum: 7 - Heating / Air Conditioning - Replies (4)

Hi Guy's

Just looking for a few pointers before I try and recommision my AC.

So 1st thing I have no idea how long the system has not been working for, so I had a word with my pet AC guy and he has advised me to do as thorough a visual an inspection as i can manage making sure all the stuff looks like its there, tight, dry and not obviously broken.

Whilst doing so I found this  Confused I,m guessing that the low pressure switch has been bypassed because A the pressure was low or B the switch is stuffed or C something else.

So my guy has advised me to replace the low pressure switch and the dryer accumulater then take it to him and he's going to fill it with nitrogen for a pressure test.

Is there anything else that I may be missing before I change out these parts that may be a Delorean quirk.

Thanks guys

Cheers Mich

  NEC Classic Car Show 2022, 2022 AGM Notification.
Posted by: Chris Williams - 29 Jun 2022, 20:32 - Forum: General Discussions on the DOC / Car / Company / JZD - Replies (46)

Hi All
It's that time of year that I'm on the cadge for volunteers for exhibiting cars at the indoor NEC classic cars how in November, There's already a post in the members section and in the last club mag for discount tickets. But as ever I really need cars and people who would be happy to supply a car (or parts of) for display. We are always fortunate to be swamped with visitors who love to admire our cars and it's actually a really good (if long) weekend.
Feel free to contact me off line via PM or email if you prefer not to respond publicly.
The 2022 AGM will also be held on Sunday at 3.15 this will be an abridged version of our AGM due to lack of interest. Feel free to come along or put your ideas/suggestions forward to me.
Thanks in advance
Chris

  DeLorean sold today at H&H Auctions, Imperial War Museum Duxford
Posted by: lordivanhoe - 22 Jun 2022, 16:33 - Forum: DeLorean Cars or Parts For Sale or Wanted - Replies (13)

#2457.  Went for £41k. (laughably estimated 25-30!)
Another one (#3170) goes under the hammer on Friday (24th June) at Goodwood.  
Will be interesting to see what the difference is, rather hopefully that one's estimated at £60k!!
:-)
Anyone here responsible for either of these?

Holy s**t.
£41k is just the 'hammer price'.  Buyer's premium and VAT on top.. final price to the buyer is what, exactly??!?  :-o

  Tracking Alignment
Posted by: Mich1958 - 21 Jun 2022, 21:19 - Forum: 5 - Suspension / Steering - Replies (4)

Hi Guys

 I'm nearing the end of my front end suspension and brake mods which have included a revamped steering rack as the old one had a heck of knock and bang on our pothole strewn british roads  Undecided   

So is there anyone in the notts derby area that does an alignment for the Delorean and more importantly has the specs.

Any recomendations would be appreciated 

Cheers
Mich

  Car for Sale (Black) with preferable End Sept completion date - DOC member car
Posted by: lordivanhoe - 13 Jun 2022, 12:50 - Forum: DeLorean Cars or Parts For Sale or Wanted - Replies (7)

Dear All:

After much excitement last year when I managed to buy, import from the US, register and fettle VIN #2045 (Black Bess), and subsequently greatly enjoy ownership, I find I am sadly in a position of having to consider selling my DeLorean.  Much to my own regret, and particularly sadly for my younger daughter who has really taken to her!  :-(
This summer she has been on display at 3 local car shows (garnering much attention naturally!), and she is also booked in to the 'Kop Hill Climb' event near Princes Risborough this September on the 24th/25th, where I am planning to take my daughters on the Hill run (at much less than 88, though!).

Accordingly, I am open for expressions of interest from anyone who would like a DeLorean but doesn't mind a/ that it's painted (black) and b/ potentially having a completion date after the Kop Hill.  I would hate to disappoint my youngest in particular.  On the plus side, this means plenty of time for both parties to ensure any deal is fair and to get all the ducks in a row!

As with any DeLorean, there are many aspects of the car to consider, so I shan't go into them all in detail here, rather keep that for further discussion.
However, in brief, some of the more important bits;
Imported last year, registration finally completed (DVLA delays included!!) 2nd September 2021.  
Front and rear light mods done and first MOT successfully passed as part of registration process.  Now registered as 'historic' and tax and MoT exempt.
Serviced (oil, coolant, filters) when received.  Upgraded DGo alternator fitted.
Front suspension updated (lower ball joints, recall work, lower arms 'boxed', poly bushed).  Also got the extra lower arm support kit but not fitted this yet.
New fuel level sensor and angle drive/lower cable just fitted (and working).
LED bulb lights in all appropriate places, door and rear louvre gas struts replaced...
And so on.  
In short, she's a DeLorean in VGC, nearly everything works (including air con!), she's very usable and presents well.
Even the paint is in pretty good nick for 40 years old.
OH yes: Manual, and grooved bonnet with gas flap!

Happy to be contacted at ivan.mark.rogers@gmail.com for discussion. 
I can of course then send piccies.

Cheers!

Incorporating our car show with the annual Haddington Festival Fun day it promises to be a great day out for all the family. 
With a good range of Minis, Classic Cars, Show cars, kids rides, face painting and much more yet to be confirmed. The event will be free to the public.
For entrants there will be the added incentive of trophies and prizes for cars voted by a few members of the public. Last year we had prize contributions from local and national sponsors. 

 We are offering display pitches for clubs and individuals. We have space for up to 60 cars and will be opening invitations from all makes and models.
There has been a request in joining the Parade that goes round the town however due to past "breakdowns" we have decided to decline.
