My Blogg on Finding and Importing Vin #10719 - flux3d - 17 Oct 2012

I've started a blogg to document how I found and (hopefully soon) imported VIN#10719.

In it I hope to take people through the process of finding, importing and finally enjoying a DeLorean.

Let me know what you all think. Big Grin

Well, been busy with 10719. The following have all been done:

fixed handbrake.
New master cylinder and bled brakes.
New washegr motor.
Cleaned off ALL black gunk from the underside - messy and unpleasant in the extreme!
Treated flaking epoxy and painted with POR-15.
New UK lights on the front.
Rear fog light INSIDE the original light cluster WITHOUT any modifications to the PCB.
New lower front springs, and new rear springs. (Chris N)
SPAX shocks all round (Chris N)
New trailing arm bolts. (Chris N)
New oil filter and new oil.
New clutch, press plate, throw bearing and rear seal. (Chris N)
New door struts. (Chris N)
Couple of dents removed from the body work (thanks to Chris N)
Plus all gears and linkage sorted bu Chris as well.

So, getting there. Just started on the interior. Removed all the trim parts and starting on the carpets. Should have it all done by the summer, fingers crossed.

Also experimented with making a laser cut/engraved key ring...
