DeLorean snow plows



Hey Group,

I just got in from skiing at Sugar Mountain in Banner Elk, NC. I've gone skiing at Sugar for many years now, and have always looked at their snow groomers very closely to see if one was a DeLorean snow groomer. It turns out Iwas looking in the wrong place all along! My brother was laughing in the ski lodge last night telling me he saw a DMC going up the slopes. I just about fell out of my chair, because he knows nothing about the DeLorean snow groomers. He jokes every time he sees anything DMC... my dog's bed has a big"DMC" sticker on it (Dallas Manufacturing Corporation... D'oh!). Anyways, I had him show me where the supposed DeLorean was, and he took me to it. Itturns out Sugar Mountain owns a "DMC 1450". It's basically a utility vehicle about the size of a small truck, albeit a truck with tank-style treads. This particular model has a 2-door, 2-person cab, and a small bed. The crewat Sugar uses it to move the snow guns around, and other such small tasks.I know I've literally skiied past this vehicle hundreds of times, but never paid it any mind. Next time I go skiing at Sugar, I will take a camera and get some pictures of the thing. Anyone else who might go skiing there, Sugar has two such similar vehicles. They have an orange one with 4 round headlights, and a red one with 2 square headlights. The red one is the DMC... it's clearly marked on the front left hand side... just below the headlight.

While we're on the subject, I'd like to know more about the DeLorean snow plow venture. Where were they made, when, how many, what kind of engines didthey use? I'm very curious now after seeing one in the flesh. Anyways, sorry if this is a bit off topic, but I figured someone in the DeLorean community might have some interest in this.
