Re: [DML] Engine Numbers & Frame Numbers

When I was in the warehouse in Cleavland Leif Montin showed me a 3x5 
cardfile that contained the vin #"s the frame #'s and the engine #'s 
of many Deloreans. It had the selling dealers and the origional 
owners. He said it was not complete. When I spoke to Steve Wynn about 
it he said it was to be a future project (I guess they had so many 
things to do at the time since they were in the process of 
inventorying and moving the place to Texas).

the cars I have looked at) I would not expect to see it in a May 82 
build car.

It is probably dirty, so bring a rag!
