The Delorean Factory Guardian

Postby DJK73 » Mon Jun 22, 2015 1:22 pm

I took my D to a small village fete on Saturday and met this Bloke
Turns out he was a soldier in Northern Ireland and was in charge of 60 men guarding the delorean factory in 1981
He and his men stayed in the factory 24/7 as it was considered a target of the IRA
He probably guarded my car or the bits that made it as its a DEC 81 car
I bought him a beer from us

Cheers
