This is a 1982 Delorean although the tax book says 1983, may have sat on the forecourt for a time before selling. Or it may have been on the line when the factory closed and been completed by the workers still in the factory. This may explain the good panel fit and door operation not common on a lot of D's.The car has been shipped in from Kansas and comes with all taxes paid and its own NOVA number . As can be seen from the pics the body is in very good condition with only a very small mark on the left rear panel. All gaps are good, back lights are not faded and she is still setting on her original Goodyear NCT tyres ( tyres are past it ) . In side the car the seats, dash, console , speedo assembly and carpet are all very good. A restoration had begun on the car when sadly the owner passed away and I purchased the car. The only work done on the car was to the brakes and radiator . A new radiator is with the car.. Please Note * the car will need a new chassis as the old one is very badly rusted/rotten and will need to be removed repaired and or replaced. The chassis is bolted to the body tub and is not hard to remove and refit . New stainless steel chassis are available in Ireland at a good price and i can supply you with all the details on them . Also there is a very good club in the UK to help with parts and advice . Car is not running .
I myself have owned Deloreans for over 20 years and would not have missed a second for the fun they bring. A £250.00 deposit is required at the end of the sale via paypal with the remaining amount to be paid in cash upon receipt of car. I will of course help with shipping delivering the car to an Irish port of you choice. Thanks for having a look..
P.S workshop manuals come with car..

£20k with rotten chassis?

[mec]

that looks too shiny to be just wet, looks like its laquered

I agree, it don't look right

[Horsebox]

Could just be a liberal application of baby oil. I finally tried the stuff on my car during the summer and it looks just like that until you go over it again with dry kitchen towel to remove the excess.

You never know ?

Starting price has been lowered to 18k, and the seller has confirmed that it isn't painted or lacquered - just photographed wet on a cold day.

Only just realised as well as needing a frame the car doesn't run...
