[ALEXAKOS]

Thanx jersey! Enthusiastic replies give is restorers the power to keep going.

Dan, what are you waiting for? There are more than a hundred out there (in the US). That are screaming for help.

[Kherns]

I'm just simply amazed. You are a one man army. Impresive. Great job.

[ALEXAKOS]

Merci mon amis!
Well, I am Greek! Now you know how Leonida's 300 were able to hold up the thousands of Xerxes at Thermopylae!

I am sure your passion can make you do miracles as well. Looking forward to your work done.

Took a trip down town to the MASTER of engines overhauling.
Bit my ass price wise, but he is second to none.
He has been in the business for over 40 years and is called "Gramps" (Grandfather). Business now run by his two following generations but he still runs the place and calls the shots
A fat $1300 will it cost me to have the valve heads as well as the complete engine block overhauled with new components.

Then went back home for some bench work. Taking apart he calipers to overhaul.


On to 5992, steering wheel column removal


Seat disassembly



Break cylinder removal


Rear side covers, speakers and heat/sound gard removal





Engine cover opening repair


I mean HONESTLY!!!! Who the hell thought of fastening that by puncturing the wheel haul. Where the water sprays with immense speed on to... Another Delorean engineering failure.

front speakers and Craig radio removal

I then took my seats to remove the leather covers. As easy as 123...

BTW,
I saw this sticker on the lower part of the passenger seat.
It seems Greek to me.. No really! It looks Greek!


Anybody got a clue?
