October 1981, 5-Speed, Grey Interior
Vin: SCEDT26T0BD005447
Current Mileage: 87,000
An extensively upgraded and mechanically sound car, perfect for someone looking to jump in and enjoy everyday. This Delorean has been a primary mode of transportation for the last two owners over the last 55k miles. This means it is driven often, and aggressively maintained. Previous location was in the desert, and isn’t winter driven here. No rust at all on the frame.
It’s been an incredible car, and I hate to part with it. Featured on the cover of Delorean World.
