![]() ![]() I know that you’ve wanted to ask the question. It isn’t clear whether it has functioning air conditioning, but the original radio/cassette player has made way for some of the movie props. ![]() There is no appreciable wear on the leather, while the dash and plastic components appear to be excellent. Looking beyond that, the original interior components are in good condition. Therefore, there is no chance that the time circuits will flatten this DeLorean’s battery. It means that the owner can connect the vehicle to mains electricity for static display. The beauty of this recreation is that all of these electrical items can also operate as stand-alone devices. All of the lights illuminate as they should, and the time circuits operate with identical beeps and other sounds that you will find in the films. He has faithfully recreated every button, switch, and gauge from the original car has in this DeLorean. Once again, the owner’s eye for detail is exceptional. I have compared the feature car with those from the movie franchise. I can think of many reasons why having a lump of radioactive material sitting between your shoulderblades is a bad thing, so this is a welcome addition. Fusion” addition that Doc Brown installed so that he no longer required Plutonium to power the time circuits. Maybe that was the secret to its success! It’s also worth noting that this car features the “Mr. Its engine has the distinctive note and whine of a supercharged V8. That car doesn’t sound like a standard DeLorean if you watch the movie. While DeLorean claimed that the car could hit 131mph, it took its time getting there. The car in the movies has to hit 88mph to achieve time travel. I have watched the BTTF Trilogy a few times, as you may have guessed. That means that a Cars & Coffee might not be far away for the new owner. However, he says that it runs and drives well. That will undoubtedly have negatively impacted its overall performance. All of the modifications performed by the owner will have added considerably to the vehicle’s weight. ![]() If the original owner had pointed this classic at a ¼ mile, the journey would have taken a relatively leisurely 16.5 seconds. Those horses find their way to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transaxle. It includes the 2,849cc V6 engine that produces 145hp. Hidden below the glitz and tinsel is the DeLorean’s original drivetrain. Did Doc reverse the car out using the remote, climb aboard, and drive it back into the trailer before Marty arrived? Did Doc Brown consciously do this for dramatic effect? I’ve agonized over that one for forty years, and I still don’t know the answer! The trailer is barely wide enough to accommodate this classic, so how did the good Doc open the gullwing doors to gain access? The DeLorean features a remote control. Suddenly, the rear of the trailer opens, and Doc backs the DeLorean into view from inside the trailer. There are no signs of either Doc or the car. The character of Marty arrives on his skateboard to be confronted by Doc Brown’s van, an enclosed trailer, and Einstein, the Doc’s faithful pooch. In the first movie, we are introduced to the DeLorean in the Twin Pines Shopping Mall car park. That brings me to a small point for you to ponder. It also wouldn’t look out of place at a classic car show. It is an eye-catching piece of work, and it should prove a hit at a local Car & Coffee. It features all the correct lights and external fixtures, and most items function as they did in the films. It presents superbly as a faithful recreation of the cars featured in the three movies. The panels are in good condition, and the owner mentions no issues with rust underneath. It retains all its traditional DeLorean stainless steel panels and the original wheels. ![]() It breaks all of the usual rules of a classic because the distinctive modifications overwhelm the base vehicle. When I first saw this DeLorean, I was left scratching my head trying to decide how best to describe this car. The cost of perfection will always be high, so the owner has set a BIN of $199,999. However, if you want to make new friends and meet interesting people, you will find this DeLorean located in Las Vegas, Nevada, and listed for sale here on eBay. That would be an unavoidable consequence of buying this classic. There’s no doubt that this DeLorean would draw a crowd wherever it goes. The owner’s attention to detail is second to none, and it seems that he has left no stone unturned in his quest for perfection. I feel no such constraints with our feature car because it is a beautiful recreation of the original. Although the temptation is sometimes too great to resist, our writers tend to avoid such references.
