[DML] Re: Black Delorean

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I disagree. One of the members of the DMA has a car that was painted
black with gold lines. It was striking. Unfortunatly he didn't like
the quality of the paint job so he removed it. I thought it was nicely
done. The factory had plans for painted Deloreans in the future. I saw
a test panel in the wharehouse in Ohio and the factory offered a
procedure to the dealers to paint the S/S panels. Since painted
Deloreans are rather rare if I had one my first impression would be to
leave it painted. Of course a painted Delorean may not be worth quite
as much as an unpainted one.
