RE: [doc] Re: DeLorean Fitted Luggage & ill-fitting clothing

["Colm Nugent" <colm.nugent@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I saw a 'Delorean' suede jacket on ebay a while back.  I assumed it was a
'fake' but maybe it was the real deal.

The photographs may not have done it justice, but it looked pretty awful.

Mind you, it was probably designed in 1979 so perhaps not that surprising.

  This is a intresting idea, I thought I remember reading somewhere
  that DMC had custom luggage made when the car was new?
  If this is right maybe this would give you a basis to start.
  At the same time I remember somthing about a designer DMC suade
  jacket. Can anyone confirm this?

  P.S. I found some Helly Hansen Luggage in Black with silver logos
  that I got for our trip to the South of France. 2 sports bags and
  2 wheelable case style bags. One sports bag and case behind the seats
  and the other set in the boot.
