As Administrator of the DeLorean Registry, we at the Texas DMC club believe our database is near complete with (currently) 8845 VINs and lots of attribute information about each car (configuration, engines swaps, paint, RHD, etc.).  Questions such as ‘How many VINs are in the UK’, and ‘How many are setup for RHD’ can be answered.
 
But, I am also in search of missing VINs, and attribute information for other VINs that we do have but don’t have information for.  This thread will be for posing updates (new and corrections) if you are so inclined.  I will monitor this thread for updates.
 
I also am the Administrator of the DeLorean Owners Directory (DOD), which is a database of VIN owner contact information provided by owners themselves on a completely volunteer basis.  The DOD contains the most up-to-date, verified, and accurate contact information out there, with over 1000 entries.  This modern list is a derivative of the original DeLorean directory created by James Espey (founder of DMC-News, the DeLorean Mailing List) back in 1995.  If you have not already joined, please do so at your convenience.  Thank you for your consideration.

Here is a quick list of links:

• Find you own VIN.
  
• How many VINs in the UK (242), in Ireland (52), are RHD (45), are painted (145), etc.?
  
• Join the DOD (and make updates yourself).
  

 
I’d also like to remind everyone that there is a DeLorean Mobile App for Android users.  It can be used to look up any VIN on file.  Additionally, if you are a member of the DOD, you can lookup contact information for other owners, and conduct direct VIN-to-VIN messaging with them.
 
The Mobile App has some other features, like displaying global statistics, and sending updates or messages/comments directly from your phone to the Administrator.  The world’s only DeLorean VIN Mobile App is offered free of advertisements, and you can get it free of charge Here.
 
Regards and thanks.

Tony Swann has posted up a rare video of the moment John DeLorean drove the car out of the factory and around the test track!

Never seen this footage before, for those who didn't see it on Facebook this morning, thought I'd post it here.

Cost me more to frame than it cost but quite pleased with the result. 

Its an architectural drawing showing conduits and power to one of the training facilities which looks like its next to the factory.

PUM436 was at the West Midlands Motor Museum - which was around the same time that Supercar Sunday was on, the highlight of which was the arrival of the Delorean Cavalcade... a couple of pictures attached too - dating back to around 2001 I think it was.

On another note, just got back from Florida, where I was lucky to find DMC Florida, which on the day I called (just managed to find it before closing time) had 19 (19!!!!!) in various states of service/repair/for sale - including a BTTF car on display too!!! - cant add any pictures as the files are too big!!!

Looking at the info from a car check, it’s a 1983 and registered in the U.K. April 1986
Any more info on this one?
(It looks to be a right hooker.....and has a roof aerial)

I should have done some research before posting!

Mr Parnham bought it at auction in 2011, before it moving up to Scotland. Cool.]]>

Anyone know which car it was? The odd position of the DMC Quality Assured sticker might be a clue?

I was at that DeLorean gallery installation the other week and it mentioned that the Severn Princess was being kept in Chepstow, which is on my drive home, so we went to find it (which was easy enough, it's pretty big).






...not really anything interesting to say about it, but neat to see, and funny how it feels like you can be anywhere in the UK and there's always something DeLorean-related around. I know some people think that the dumping of the tooling was part of the "kill DMC" conspiracy, but it did mean very little chance of the company being started again because of the huge financial cost of those panel moulds.]]>
