And Yes I have built a Flux Capacitor for it with real Torr tmr-9a high voltage relays.

I made it so that it lights up and pulsates like in the movie Back to the Future.

I don't win very many trophies at car shows. Not due to not having a clean car but mainly due to un-educated people about the car, and a combination of misguided/byest comments from the media that still stick around from the past. People only seem to remember the bad things even if they were not true and still hold a false judgment on the DeLorean. I know you can only see the back end of a primer painted car parked in front of me here in this picture. But the car wasn't even a completed car and looked like a junker and it recieved a trophy at the end of the weekend, I recieved nothing. Not that I go to shows for trophies but it's nice to have someone recognize your hard work and have appreciation for the car.

In summer of 06 my Friend and fellow DeLorean owner Jeremy caravaned to a car show in Franklin, Ohio. There were over 800 cars that showed up to this event. The weather couldn't have been more beautiful and it was one of my favorit car shows I have attended.

Showing a DeLorean at a car show is uniqe and different than showing any other car. Most people have never seen one n person and are shocked to see it. But to see two together really got people excited. It was funny because depending on which direction people were coming from they would only see on DeLorean and then look at it for a long time then turn and see the other DeLorean and be like WOW another one! It was a fun experience and can't wait to do it again.
