Copied from our Facebook page:
Here are some photos I've been meaning to scan for a while. I posted them on a Lotus Europa group with some Lotus related photos but think they may be of interest here.
I would have taken them in the early 1980's at a scrapyard local to the Lotus factory.
The first photo shows three DeLorean chassis that have been run over by a JCB a few times.
Looking closely I can see that they were once fully made up cars but the bodies have been forcibly removed from their chassis.
I don't remember seeing any DeLorean bodies anywhere.
The second photo shows a close up of a DeLorean chassis and engine.
The third photo shows a pair of DeLorean Doors that have been flattened.
A couple of people in the Lotus group say these are likely to be prototypes.
