Tony Swan who is collecting the 500 series cars located vin 517 and vin 515 in the states which are currently in the same condition as when they were crash tested by DMC, Tony has been tiring to purchase the cars but the owner will not part with them, he has plans on restoring them!
We have the crash test report and the pictures are not good! I would expect that it possibly may be a normal delorean or as mentioned a car similar! What ever the outcome very interesting!
Best wishes!

yeah, when i read the info on your site (along with the scanned letter) it seemed like the cars were in the states, but it was strange why the cars were located, but seemed to be left alone.
now we have the answer.
presumably 515 and 517 the cars seen in the short clips we've seen of crash tests?
ho hum.

I would expect that the video showing the crash tests would be 515 and 517, however we know that one or more pilot cars were crash tested as well.
Best wishes!

Some of you were right, it wasn't a DeLorean. Apparently its something with a similar body shape... possibly an old Lotus! But I've asked if he can get photos anyway. Bit of a disappointment!
