Hi all.
Breaking an 81 Delorean. Everything on it that you could need minus an engine, bonnet and the left front wing and a few little bits and bobs. I'll sell the whole thing as a project car for £5000 or if I get no offers on the car then I'm breaking it.
The car has all the paperwork to register it in the UK, tax has been payed on it so no problems there.
If anyone is interested let me know.

If you do end up breaking it (most likly someone will have the car off you in one piece)
if it's a black interior, I'll have your Binnacle
do you have the coil cover from the engine compartment? If so, let us know how much you want for it.
Dave.

Yes the car can be put back onto the road. A little elbow grease, time and a few parts are all thats needed. I just dont have the time to do it and it breaks my heart to see it there.
If no one wants the complete car then It's time to break it.
Come on somebody must want this as a 'project' car, personally i hate to see D's broken up. ( But then we are all free to do whatever we want with our own property) Must be a great contender for an engine 'upgrade '

umm any rough cost to get it back on the road? what vin number is it? grey/black interior? I fear having to get an engine will cost alot, the hood and stuff aint much of a problem, also is the chassis in good nick?

Mike I hate to break cars up, especially rare ones like deloreans thats why I will sell it as a complete project car for 5k.
However I'm sure we have all got a part off of a donor car at some point. Some must due to keep others on the road.
The chassis is solid. A bit of surface rust but some rust killer and epoxy paint would fix it. The underbody is solid.
I have an engine suitable for the car in bits if anyone wants it as-well. I'll chuck it in.
It's an October 81 car in the 6000 vin range. Grey interior with a mint dash and binnacle.
Honestly If I had the time I would fix it.

The chassis and gearbox is an Auto but I can alter the chassis to take a manual box and also supply a manual box to go with it if needs be.
Please be aware that this is a true project car. Everything is there but you will need to rebuild it. Not hard just time and effort is needed
