Barry Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Sadly not the one in the picture but possibly they will start building the DMC 12 again. It was never a good car but always had a certain coolness about it. http://gloopa.co.uk/delorean-goes-back-to-the-past-to-restart-car-production/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rahimdad Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 So nostalgic. I heard the Delorean had its own set of problems, but it was an icon never the less. i love the looks of the concept vehicle posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted October 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 I've read elsewhere that the car in the photo is supposed to be the concept version of the detomaso pantera. Another very cool car in its day. The original dmc12 was built not far away from my hometown and there was always a lot of buzz about it. John Delorean was a legend in my eyes. He managed to completely screw the British government and get away with it. I always thought it was sad the way the FBI decided to set him up on a cocaine deal. Possibly wasn't the best way for him to make some quick cash but his heart was in the right place trying to get money to save the jobs of the workers at the plant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Posted October 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 Here is a very good documentary on the delorean story, this year was the 30th anniversary. There was a huge event in Belfast and a large number of the cars came back to where they were born. They also had a long drive around the island so everyone could enjoy them.
