[DMCForum] Re: Vixen



The Vixen was not a DeLorean project, but actually a project of Bill
Collins
after he left DMC. They are relatively rare, and are sought after because
their very low height (for a motorhome) allows them to be parked inside
most
home garages. There is a pretty active owners group and they have a forum
on
MSN Groups, as well.
