update on wrecked DMC

["Louie Golden" <louiegolden@xxxx>]

I would like to thank everyone who responded to my inquiry about the wrecked DeLorean on e-bay. I got over 10 e-mails! I have been talking with the seller, inquiring as to the extent of the damage of the car. It turns out that it is merely surface damage, no frame damage. The control arm is only slightly bent and is easily straightened. He has all the facia and grill peices (not installed) and all it would need is $3000 in parts (fender, door, wheel). The car is in good runnig shape (he has been putting updates on it recently) and has been checked out by a mechanic recently. The interior is supposed to be in good shape too. The car he says just needs some cleaning. He has said twice that he is not sure of the car's real value. I think this is my chance to own a DeLorean for under $10,000. Am I being TOO optimistic? Is it still too risky to buy this car. I would love to hear some more opinions on this matter- Louie 

PS- I know there are several owners in NC on this mailing list- where do you take your cars when they need work done?
