Really nice, thanks for sharing pictures.

That's the 2nd car, it went to a Bank in Snyder Texas http://www.bigtexas.com/dmc/ It is the only gold car with a black interior both the 1st and 3rd one had a tan interior
The first car is in a museum in Reno, NV. They were the only 2 cars made for the American Express promotion although a 3rd car was finished with the remaining panels when the factory closed, it was apparently the very last car made. Ken Koncelik has had the 3rd one at a few of his shows.

Only a true DeLorean-ophile would take pics of the underside as wel as the shiny top side.

I was in LV last year - damn, I didn't know it was there - where exactly is it?

If I'm not mistaken, it is the Petersen, I recognize the light.
