Hi,
I've had my Delorean for about 8 years as a fixer-upper, and have finally had the money to get her on the road. I bought her from my freind Russell who moved to Australia in 2005 and has since sadly passed away. He imported her in 1998 when he was working as one of the artists on the computer game Carmageddon. Russell and the car were modelled and featured in the sequel http://carmageddon.wikia.com/wiki/Russ_T.
A local classic car specialist has just refurbished the exterior and MOT'd her for me, so I'm finally getting to enjoy driving her! There are still a lot of issues to deal with, the worst being having no air-con or power windows. Lovely weather for driving, except you're entombed in a greenhouse... :?
glad to join the club, I'm sure you'll be hearing a lot from me as I work through the various issues on my mission to get her back in shape!
