Still spaces available if you want to attend.

Possibly arrive on foot, buy car in auction, then join in on the Delorean stand ;)

Ok, Ok. Just trying to fill the spaces on the stand. :oops:

Ah yes - http://www.classiccarauctions.co.uk/1981-delorean-dmc12 is this one: viewtopic.php?f=56&t=4345

I can't believe we never did narrow down this VIN in the end - surely there can't be many red cars about? Will be nice to finally see it sold!

3351 was the old BHCC stock number.

Buuuutttt, that made me look somewhere else, and joining the dots, I believe the VIN is 02688,

The car was stripped by the elderly gentleman who imported it... With an orbital sander...And the stainless underneath was one of the worst condition cars Chris has ever worked on anywhere in the world, it took days and days to get it to an acceptable level
The guy then traded it in with the dealer who has it now

Was it bad because of the orbital sander, or was the condition of it so bad that it was originally painted (or was it rendered bad as prep for the painting)?

Any pics?
