Nice job Heep.
I think another aspect of the DeLorean that should be mentioned is the frame. It's an epoxy coated Y backbone chassis, the same that the Indy cars use. I shouldn't have to explain the positives to that design.

Also the gullwing doors are controlled by torsion bars. "Said to be good for 50,000 opening and closing cycles without losing strength." They were put in liquid nitrogen and twisted through 10 revolutions. "The grain structure of the bar is rearranged and during the process it gets neither smaller in diameter nor shorter." They gave the metal a memory. The torsion bar alone is what makes me cringe when people compare the DeLorean to Bricklins. Yuck.

A lot of people that see our DeLorean ask if we updated the interior. The style looks a lot newer than the early 80s. JZD was way ahead of his time and his vision was and is astounding. He wanted to build an "ethical sports car" that was also a safe vehicle. One that lasted for 25 years plus and the average owner could work on and maintain himself. That in it's self is amazing.
