Jim Prentice
#1
All,

Some of you may have heard of Jim Prentice - he was one of the engineers that worked on the design of the Gullwing doors at Lotus. We've spoken to him several times in the past, and he's kindly provided lots of photos and information for our website.
He also attended one of the US shows a few years back and gave a presentation on his time working with DeLorean.

Sadly, I received an email yesterday saying that Jim passed away earlier this year.

Jim's family have asked us if we could provide them with any copies of his old photos, etc as keepsakes. We'll certainly be sending them what we have, but if anyone else on here wants to forward on anything - please send to me (sales@pjgrady.co.uk) and I'll make sure they get to Jims wife and son.

If anyone has a copy of the video in which Jim is presenting in the US - that would be a nice for his family.

Many thanks

Darren

Very sad indeed. When I was in Gettysburg I learned the passing of one of my bosses from Delorean just a few months before. It came as a shock. We lived in the same town at the time of working at Delorean.
