[DML] My tribute to John : DMC Prototype Running!

["Tony" <DMCPROTO1@xxxxxxx>]

Dear Group:

 I was unable to attend John's funeral and felt like I needed to do something to honor 
the man. I decided to try and get John's Prototype running again after 20 years of 
slumber. Since it was the last day of his funeral, I did not want to take the project 
lightly. I wanted, if at all possible, to sucsessfully get Proto One running again since 
this would be John's last day on earth. After 6 hours of preparation to ensure that no 
moving parts would be damaged, Proto One fired up, ran on it's own, and actually 
kept a steady idle at aproximately 3:30 pm eastern time on Thursday, March 24th 
2005. Myself and the staff of DMC (Florida) are treating this car with the utmost care 
and respect leaving it in 95% original condition. We are humbled to be the 
caretakers of this very special piece of automotive history and are happy to share it 
with the DeLorean community.

With all loving respect to the DeLorean family,
Tony Ierardi
