RE: [DML] Re: Barris DeLorean Auction

["Videobob Moseley" <videobob@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The only screen used BTTF3 cars that I have seen, are the one that was hit 
by the train and is not re-assembled and hanging upside down in a restaurant 
(I think Planet Hollywood in Hawaii?)
The other is the one that was converted with the Volkswagen and red wheels 
which I have seen photos of and it is hammered.
The only other part3 car would be the one in the cave with the rotted 
wheels.
I assume that this was a left over from Part2, and the two movies were made 
consecutively
so it's all the same I guess.

The main thing is that the actual car being sold is not being pictured, and 
maybe George Barris purchased this car and is now selling it, but if it is 
one he built it is not an original screen used car.

If anyone out there knows this, it's you Stephen!
