RE: [DML] Re: Barris DeLorean Auction

The car's description refers to it having functional strobe lighting on
the bottom of the car....I'm presuming this to be the effect used at the
end of the first movie, (and obviously the 2nd)  and I doubt there would
have been more than one car with this strobe lighting.  (Frankly, I
thought they used a miniature for that...I need to go back and watch the
scenes again.)  Seems like a respectable auction house ought to have a
bit more information - and actual pictures.  And of course, while they
say the special lighting functions, they make no reference as to whether
or not anything else on the car does!

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!
