I'll guess thats the RAC in Victoria ?

Turns out it is in a private collection that one of the Oz Delorean owners was able to get in and see, along with a 300SL

Here is an updated list. I need help on the ones in Scotland - there seems to have been several appear. Any confirmations on them?

(I changed it to "Deloreans on Display" as Universal can hardly be called a museum

I have just back from a week from the Lake District and the Lakeland Car Museum originally at Holker Hall is now in a different place:

http://www.lakelandmotormuseum.co.uk/

Thought I would let you know to keep this database up :D

I will scan in the leaflet when I get a chance as it has the DeLorean on the front too.
Car has reg RMC1 and is a right hand drive and will post some pics.

Mine was also in the Sarrasota Museum in Florida which I bought directly from them in 2003.

I understood that they had another DeLorean there and believe it may have a gas flap hood which was possibly swapped with mine :cry:

I have been trying to get in touch with them to confirm that they still have one, but no luck yet.

Here is a pic that is supposedly of the one in that Museum, yes with a g/f hood

Well if Dermot is right and it's vin 2873 then my thinking it is likely to be an August 81 so would of been too late for a gas flap? Oh well!

Maybe I'll take a trip and look for a little red sticker under the hood light :lol:

Al,

the list is intended to be a guide off all Deloreans that the public can go and see. I first called it Museum Deloreans, but then I realized that Universal Studios is hardly a museum :D

So if you have any more info on the SA one, I'll add it in (just in case anyone is passing ;) )


Peter,
mine is 2743 (Aug81) and it's a g/f car. Perhaps their original hood on 2873 got damaged and they swapped out yours and bought a second hand flat one ???
