Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 This is a rare opportunity to acquire a real piece of Evocative American Motoring History, a 1981 DeLorean. The dream child of the iconic former Pontiac engineer and Pontiac-Chevrolet Chief, John Z. DeLorean. Following in the footsteps of exotic European sports cars with its wedge shape and flamboyant Gull Wing Doors the DeLorean was designed by Bill Collins another former Pontiac Engineer. It was built by DeLorean in a new purpose built factory in Northern Ireland with grants from the British Government. These dramatic motorcars were produced from 1981-1982 and announced the arrival of a bold new Independent American Motorcar manufacturer to challenge the best from Detroit and indeed the rest of the world. For the uninitiated, please note this was a Specialist Production Motorcar Company and Coach Maker, these are Not Kit Cars. The DeLorean evolved with the collaboration of several Motorcar companies the most influential being Lotus of England which developed the chassis and all independent suspension, and fiberglass inner framework for the stainless-steel body panels.The V6 power plant was also European. Unfortunately as with some other specialist motorcar companies issues due to manufacturing , quality control problems, dubious finances and some that seemed to come straight from a Hollywood movie script, the DeLorean Motorcar Company demise was profound and approximately 8,500 of these epic motorcars were built. Indeed Hollywood had a major role in the iconic cult status these Motorcars posses immortalized in the film “Back to the Future” . This rare exotic motorcar is in very nice unmolested original condition throughout. The bodywork is extremely straight, dry and clean. The beautiful stainless-steel looks all original and as such has a few chips and blemishes but as you can see from the pictures these do not detract from the overall great shape this vehicle is in. The leather seats and interior are in excellent condition. It would not be difficult to transform this fine motorcar to a show car. The condition of the car reflects the extremely low miles, making this a great addition to your motorcar collection. The motorcar is available for viewing in the New Hampshire area by appointment, and I encourage you to view it if possible to truly appreciate this fine motorcar. I am selling the car on behalf of the owner, any further questions; please do not hesitate to ask! I will do my best to get you the correct information.
