Just wanted to let you know that one of my fellow NSW Torana Club members has just finished the mechanical rebuild of his DeLorean. Has been off the road for 3 1/2 years and will be registered this week.

The DeLorean is in full working order including hovers boards and time travel. I've been promised a drive and am planning to go back to 1972/73 to buy a couple of new XU1's and then to 1978 to pick up some A9X hatchbacks. Taking orders now, get in early for your choice of colour.

And no I am not dreaming, here's the DeLorean.

Cheers Mick.

Done Tim.

What a great number 88, or as they say is bingo, "two fat ladies"
(no offence intended to any female members)

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't there only 23 right hand drive Delorean's made? Hey they're made in my home town so easy on! Camaro is nicer though. Delorean's have a gorgeus wide rump plus you can get a nice twin turbo conversion.
