It’s what you do best, the impossible mission that you make possible. And we get to be there with you! Thanks for the content.
I'm from Belfast, Dunmurry and the Delorean factoy was in the Dunmurry Industrial Estate. It was just behind my secondary school. As kids we would explore it as it was always left abandoned. We would ride our bikes around the parabolic curve on the test track. I believe it's still there today. This was in 1994ish. People from Dunmurry love telling this story, lol. It's our claim to fame. We built the time machine!! Oh and an Irish hardware store is called B&Q(Block and Quayle), and an Irish name beginning with a 't', Tara for girls or Tiernan for boys.
Then maybe you can answer the question as to whether the biggest hardware store in Ireland is "Bolts and Nuts" but said with a goofy Irish accent 😅
@@stevemonkey6666 In Belfast the biggest is definitely B&Q, not too sure about the rest of Ireland. But the goofy accent part can't be denied. Lol
@@stevemonkey6666 His accent sounded more Scottish than Irish, plus the Northern Irish accent is significantly different from.. say, the Dublin or Cork accent that people put on to sound Irish.
Brad Pitt does a half decent Northern Irish accent, it's not an easy one to do because why would you? Unless you are being paid a shed load of money to do it! 🤣@@boilerhousegarage
@@michaelbyrne9737 But in Snatch, his accent was supposed to be "pikey" who are generally from the Southern parts of Ireland, at least in origin as they're their own non-geographical traveller lineage. Some are from Devon and Cornwall, but still have a similar accent--at least to us non-gypos!
I don’t think you’re planning it, but this is probably the best detailed DeLorean video on the internet. What a cool car.
I strongly advice you to take the body off the frame. Makes all the mechanical bits so much easier.
You can give it a good clean also.
I’ve had a Delorean for 16 years, I restored it, and had the body back off 4 years ago.
Great to see your progress though. 👍🏼👍🏼
craziest thing to me, being a mechanic for the last 15 years, is that a 42 year old car that was cobbled together and sat for 32 years still has better quality interior plastics than a modern high end car. Really says a lot.
I own a dmc 12 and did alot of what you are doing. It's part of the fun. Build quality was pretty good on the later cars. But there are alot of great modern updates you would want to do. Billet front lcas (they were weak), solid state relays, borgeson steering shaft with damper. I mean you get the idea. Dpi has alot of great stuff. I always wanted to do carbon fiber louvers and side pieces, but no one makes them and I am too busy to bother learning how lol. Keep posting more crap!
I sure hope so these years were atrocious quality, Ive seen golf carts with better build quality
Glad to see you rescued this car. I'm slowly restoring DeLorean 3337. I can smell that interior from here 🤮 That sound when you stuck the vacuum in the dash side vent!
Looking forward to the engine swap series! The best thing to do with the old PRV engine is to sit it in a corner and forget about it 😂
Enjoying the build so far, great attention to detail with the resto and subtle upgrades coming.
The bracket you found with the spare wheel is the front licence plate holder.
Was gonna say the same. 👍
Love to see this whole car restored properly and your attention to detail.
Wow, you are really restoring this vehicle. I am sure I never seen a DeLorean restoration like this. In this process, it is really cool to see how they built this car. I am Detroiter and this car was iconic here way before Back to the Future. Very cool - thanks.
I truly admire your patience and attention to detail. Great job. I would so overwhelmed taking all that apart at once.
I suggest you slow down and enjoy the ride, smell the flowers and maybe turn on your favorite tunes. Quit time pressuring yourself so you can't even enjoy what you are doing because this is what makes most people stressed out when they would otherwise enjoy the ride,
They were built in Northern Ireland but they had the stainless body panels made at a factory in Carlow that did panels for all kinds of cars. The stainless could not be pressed in one go, so there were 5 stages, 5 giant dies, all weighing 5 tons each. Those dies now hold down a giant tarp at the bottom of Galway Bay. I was in the Carlow factory which is a totally different company today, but they told me that when they bought the place, there were loads of shells and door skins out back which had to be destroyed due to licencing. Ouch! Good luck with the build, delighted for you and feeling the excitement 🎉❤
What happened to the dies for the body panels? Does anyone know?
@@jwalster9412 What ? Read the comment you replied to . . .
What's your favorite line in the Back to the Future Movies? Mine is " Doc, I'm from the future. I came here in a time machine that you invented. Now I need your help to get back to the year 1985!"
“Are you telling me you built a Time Machine out of Delorean?”
“Watch me for the changes & try to keep up”
"Roads?? Where we're going we don't need...roads"

Mine was your dad fell out of a tree bird watching 😂and my dad hit him lol when he was actually spying on her (his mom)
This is like watching every step of my wife and I with our Delorean. Paid $12,500.00 for ours. It was sitting in a barn for 20+ years. Similar condition but more rust issues than yours. The frame was rusted out. You made some mistakes and had some incorrect info but so didn't I at that stage. The whole time you were cleaning I was saying "Do that later! Focus on getting the car running first!" But...once again I did the same thing. You just can't help yourself!
Not sure why you were doing so much work under the car with it not up in the air. 🤔 I hate laying on the ground.
Are you on the Delorean forums? I have a log of our (my wife snd I) project on there. Up to over 400 pages and over $50k invested so far.
Keep up the good work!
Wow Alex the fun you where having taking about this car especially the bumpers is crazy but definitely worth it. The cleaning you do is incredible this car is gonna be almost brand new when your done.
Not a big DeLorean fan so wasn't sure if I'd follow this restoration, but my mind is changed. This is the most satisfying series so far. I love your attention to detail. I already know this thing's going to look immaculate when you're done with it. Keep grindin', Alex! 💪
Same.
It's so cool to see someone working on and restoring a DeLorean, let alone someone who is learning as they go. This video series is something special, and I'm thankful you're making it.
2nd that!
Agree 100%.Nice to see the workmanship and complexity of removing items and their construction.
Always had a admiration for the Delorean. They gained such a bad reputation from some but others really love them.Much the same as i do with my 1982 Pontiac Trans Am.Keep on with this fascinating series.
So fun to watch someone clean and detail this project that he just loves. Reminds me of when I first got my 2004 Toyota MR2 Spyder. I cleaned everything and explored every nook and cranny of that car. Pretty fun in deed.
Hi Alex.
My name is Lucky Omezi, I'm a Nigerian living in Nigeria.... The back to the future movie made most of us love the Delorean (for some weird reason).
I want to say thank you for your Delorean project because that's the only way a person like me would ever get to see it taken apart.....Thank you !
I’ve been waiting with bated breath for this episode. Congrats Alex - can’t think of anyone more deserving of this “time” capsule. 😅
Great video, Alex, love you bringing this DeLorean back to life! One thing to consider as you’re putting it back together is the potential for galvanic corrosion when different types of metals are touching-like steel bolts, nuts and washers held tightly against the stainless steel skin. If you truly want this to be your “forever” car, some extra effort to protect these from contacting each other (for the most part) or switching to stainless fasteners might give you some peace of mind. I’m sure DeLorean didn’t do this because of cost, but they also didn’t think that they were building a vehicle that could last 100’s of years. -Don
@@dwk5234 Hey yeah that's right! All those many studs that snapped off trying to remove them must have largely been due to galvanic corrosion as you say!
Yep, you're right. I hope Alex takes heed of your advice & uses stainless fasteners where possible.
Good advice regarding the use of stainless steel fasteners. Galvanic action on dissimilar metals is a real killer!
_At __11:43__, love the subtle _*_Zoolander_*_ reference. LOL_
LOVE this series!! So cool to see this beautiful special car restored!
An hour long videos almost and it felt like it wasn't long enough. Could watch this for another hour and noticed the time. Great video can't wait for the next one.
About 15 years ago I worked at a shop that was a certified Delorean repair shop, they were nightmare’s to work on because when they got towed in they were always in rough shape. Still fun to be around so many at one time . Watching this brought back so many memories thank you for that. 👍🏻👍🏻😎
So many have low miles from sitting so long seems like the always conked out before they ever made it to 20k miles one down the street from me has been sitting since 1989 still has its original tires flat 9k miles on it
That's really cool you must know a lot about them what city were u in?
We did the factory alignments, and the old chassis sucked but the new ones (once they ran out of old stock chassis) were an absolute nightmare!
I find it really refreshing and honest from you to add the outtakes in the end. Shows that what your doing is not easy peasy and that the filming is a task of itself ....
Here's the next DeLorean Video! ua-cam.com/video/7mdW8VuFspc/v-deo.html
If I remember right, DeLorean went bust while they had enough parts to build another hundred cars sitting on the shelves, they guy tried to revive the car about 20 years ago but failed again.... all those parts are sitting there somewhere
The quality and most important the honest hard work showed in your videos is a testament of what a real car enthusiast life is. Never change no matter how great is your success because be so humble and authentic is what makes you great. 👍. Congratulations to all the people giving you a helping hand, real friends.
So satisfying. You are doing this right. Calm. Deliberate. Patient. Respectfull.
I love the DeLorean DMC. Such a beutifull car and iconic. And YES, it is 100% a direct reflection of the iconic Back To The Future (1985) movie(s).
Sadly the car was marketed as a "sports-car", but DMC installed a very weak V6 engine in it (V6 PRV engine), and a very odd mixed one as well with engine parts from
Volvo, Renault & Peaugot (?) and somehow this mix would be cheaper then the suggested V6 engine, V6 Cologne from Ford (?). The V6 Ford engine was a heavily reliable engine that was well used and delivered good power and durability. Beside this, many DeLorean owners have through the years complained that the electric work on these are its most common issue of problems related to typhical British poor electric installation craft.
If it is possible to switch V6 engines in this car I don't know, but it would be awesome it it is possible. There must be some good fitting V6 engines that could work (?)
I feel this car truly deserves a better engine with more power and speed.
Spent a few hours in the Delorean ‘factory’ in Houston, about 15 years ago, talking to their VP about Porsche 928’s of all things, of which he just bought 6 of. I was showing how mine was from factory, so he could rebuild the ones he bought.
It was great, they essentially bought everything from the original factory in Ireland. There were rows and rows of Delorean parts, including transmissions, doors, hoods, engines, etc. etc. They had jigs to essentially rebuild the rusty frames (which were just regular steel), where they’d take the original VIN plate and graft it on to the ‘new’ frame/car, to make a new/old/original/restored car.
The cars were ‘cool’. The engines were dogs and they knew it. Low HP but still there was the cool factor. They even had a red painted car, that was much lower in $ than an unpainted stainless car, but someone wanted theirs painted from the factory. Good times and I have lots of pics somewhere. Thanks for doing this series!!!!
This is an awesome restoration series on what looks to be an awesome find! Looking forward to each new video. Thanks for doing this, Alex.
If you stay committed to this car and don't get side tracked with other projects.. ABSOLUTELY I see you having the car ready to take the wife and daughter out in for Halloween.. I WISH YOU THE BEST OF LUCK BUDDY !!!
You make some really good videos, man. This is my favorite restoration so far I can't wait to see how it comes out!
So I said I was excited for this series but i lied, im over the moon for this series! I cant wait to see the process and what this car looks like when your done! So excited Alex, and your doing a great job so far!
Me 2..
It’s so satisfying watching the Delorean come clean and with your attention to detail and perfection I know when this car is done like the rest it will be amazing. Thanks for sharing once again your project with us. This not only brings back memories but is very satisfying. We can always count on you not to disappoint. Thanks again. Cant wait to see the finished product. Have a great day.
Wow. This is a whole new thing. I definitely wouldn’t have the patience to deal with this. Kudos to you Alex, for being our Patient Saint.
I finished the DeLorean! Check this out! ua-cam.com/video/DsAxVt94sb8/v-deo.html
This channel is really really good! Huge detail and long format… heaven
That's beyond satisfying to remove all the dirt n grime. But what's even better is the feeling when you reach the finish line.. I'm here for all of it!! I'm more than interested in finding out whether you modify this car. You're not the kind of guy to drive something under 200hp. And so many current owners have modified their cars with with the body and or power. I'm with ya for all of it!! Let's go!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Needs an LS swap for sure, or perhaps a Turbo Buick V6 would better fit the engine bay and the overall 80's theme of the car... 😁
I love the consistency and length of these videos, brother. Keep them coming. That's why DeLorean went broke he used all those nuts and bolts to secure a bumper 😂
Thanks!
@@LegitStreetCars I'd watch 8 hour videos. Just livestream it!
@@LegitStreetCars ask regular car reviews.....he knows a dude in Pennsylvania that has and does LS swaps
@@clevelandmaker386 Josh is in Chicago and works with Mike at DMC Midwest Alex has already met him.
Amazing……had a friend who had one……and now I know a DeLoren inside and out…….KUDOS…..can’t wait for further videos…… keep up the good work…..👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Used Clyde's on my E350 Cabriolet on the leather wheel, and seats. No problems, fade or transfer. I still have my dad's OG Escort Radar Detector with the box! I'm really looking forward to watching the restoration videos.
Hey Alex, Love this content, huge BTTF fan here! Watching your videos on this car it seems like it has a lot more miles on it than you were thinking. The wear on the seats, the sludge caked on the engine. I think it has 116k not 16k. Which makes sense as it was driven for 10 years before being put away. Not sure it matters, just something I have been thinking about. I am very glad you got one of these, have fun!
Can’t wait for the power train video for this car. This is like a history class!
Outtakes are awesome. Love the transparency and dedication.😎🇺🇲🙏
Alex: "And now it's time to blast everything back in time." ..I see what you did there. Very nice
I saw Back to the Future part 2&3 last night and chuckled to myself at how much fun Alex must be having with his Time Machine. Never a dull Saturday morning moment with LSC. Max killing the edits too lately. Good work all around.
You are a pleasure to watch/listen to even when you are faced with stuff that would piss the heck out of most working on a car! Amazing how you do things without fear. That's what experience will show us and what it takes. Enjoyed watching and look forward to the next one in the near "future". Had to say it.
(Just hit the wrong bloody key which made the post disappear... hate it when it does that. My apologies if it actually posted, but I don't see it.)
Anyways... Great Job, Alex. You have the patience of Job, so to speak. Detailing is a tedious job.
Barn finds are sometimes (maybe usually?) not unlike what you found with this DeLorean.
I once tried to buy a barn find from a local fellow who's shop repaired cars. He found a 72 280SE 4.5 in dark green with palomino leather and low miles. It all ran but needed a tune-up, rebuilt trans and a new diff. The fuel system was cleaned out (another tedious job) and the rear half was resprayed in the factory color. Looked gorgeous and I made an offer, which was generous, but he had just received a call from a buddy in LA (a director) and he wanted it along with a Porsche Speedster. Ugh. We'd still have that car if he had accepted my $7k offer. That was back in 1983.
Love the channel buddy. When I initially saw one of your videos it came after a Mat Armstrong video and it seemed similar so I took a gamble and I’m really glad I did. It was the space van, and your dedication to complex investigation and fearlessness to discovery had me hooked. You, like Mat are always positive and that’s refreshing. Now for my one and only complaint from the myriad videos I’ve watched. It’s pronounced New-Clea-Urr, not New-Cue-Lurr!! You’re too intelligent to ever mess this up again. I mean, you are the one to mention Oppenheimer after all. 😀. And as far as this Delorean is concerned, holy hell I’m pretty sure you got the holy grail of barn finds. I haven’t watched the third video yet, but it’s my guess that this thing is going to clean up to be ridiculously clean and the motor runs, and I’d bet it’s actually in good shape. This car find is truly unheard of, and I’m glad it was you that found it as in a way your experience is our experience. Thanks for all of that, and I’m glad your living revolves around your passion instead of a job.
These are my favourite car restoration videos! Love how happy you are and I am a big fan of the camera work and the editing!
Lookin' good! With the interior all stripped down you can take the opportunity to line as many panels as possible with Dynamat to improve noise insulation. I doubt that was even a consideration when it was initially assembled.
Awesome car! So fun to watch it come back. The thought occurred to me while you were cleaning the interior that you need a steam cleaner. Disinfectant and super clean at the same time with even less product.
Just awesome... DeLorean are a work of art. Its great seeing you do this restoration. Keep up the great work... its much appreciated

Really liked the pace of your teardown, and not afraid to tackle whatever unknowns. These are extremely under powered from factory. Would be cool to turbo charge!
It prob would have a bit more power if it was a manual
@colinhayward9184 this thing is an automatic? 🤢
@legitstreetcars if you’ve never used turtlewax carpet and interior cleaner I highly recommend it. It comes in green cans. It’s the best stuff I’ve ever used to clean carpets. I’ve used it to get coke stains out of carpet. It turns the stuff to look like new. Pretty crazy stuff. I’ve never even used a drill attachment to agitate it. I’ll have to try that.
Eat your heart out Hoovie lol Alex has taken your throne for buying the most hooptie of hoopties 😂 😂 Alex please keep these Delorean Vids coming, i love this car even though it is the slowest sports car of the 80s. I mean Lotus was the only other company making cars out of a shed back in the day.
It actually looks pretty good, not that I'm conducting the restoration work, but yeah, it looks doable for Halloween. Just don't specify which year, and you'll be fine.
Fantastic video. Its so cool to see the nooks and crannies of a car like this that you would normally never get to see
I’ve been watching these videos with my sons. I appreciate the content and spending time with them and our shared love of the Delorean.
Alex you are like a machine! Once you get going there is no stopping you! Great work so far and love the car...
Love this channel! Your restoration tips have been incredibly helpful.
This is art ❤love it the project is very satisfying one the best car on the channel with some many secret panel, screws , unconventional design to things just a dream ❤
Totally love this video!!!😍 The design and DMC build methods are so funny:)) More Delorean content!👍🎉
The way the headliner cover wraps over the structure, then the trim goes on, is almost the exact same way you'd find a Fiero headliner with a sunroof going in. Guess who forgot to leave the extra material once! *cough*
And that seal you're taking off looks REALLY like generic off the shelf D-seal that we used at a trailer manufacturing place I worked at recently. Should be easy to find.
Allritey Buddy, We all know what you are feverently looking for on all of those little compartments & Crannies About the car, Does Anyone know if YahYo holds up in time? I r never had aged Blow? Humhh... I just bought A 77 Vette as my 1st project ever! I got it for 6k it runs & drives Sweet, It's all about the money to get it painted, I think I got the rest, You will knock this one Out like you have all of your other Projects!!! Cheers to the Master!!! Stay Legit Alex...B~
There is a lot of that interior that appears very similar to the Fiero my buddy had back in 1992. Center consul and controls, maybe it was the style back then lol.
@@dmcgOR7644 - John D DID work for GM going back decades, so no doubt styling cues rubbed off on him.
You definitely had me cringing when you were prying on the T panel. It is possible to remove the headlight assembly without taking the front off. The number with the X on the door is the key code. Overall your doing a good job. Fun fact a lot of the little shims were added when they arrived in the states. The QAC guys used cases of them. If your state allows for it, ditch the original exhaust. VIN 3500
I was thinking that same thing watching him yank on the T panel. It fun to watch new delorean owners learning about their cars. I was yelling those are the front body bolts when he was washing the trunk lol. Vin 3408
This is by far the best series you have done. It's absolutely amazing. But please make it a manual transmission. That would just be the cherry on top of this iconic restoration.
DeLorean Forsenics 101! I hope your don't get sick from all the mold and rodent excrement. 😮 Great job on the seats! They look like new! I SO appreciate your attention to detail and taking us along for the adventures. As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
This is an absolutely fascinating series, thank you so much for taking us on the journey with you! So much more interesting because you don't know what to expect!
I love how bodged together this car is :D
LS swap it
hello alex Been waiting for this episode, which seems like ages.And you seem to be so particular in everything you do.And I think if anybody can do it, you can.
Really loving this series so far! Awesome content!
This car earned my sub. It's so lovely to see it, and it's even more awesome that you got it basicly stock
Great restoration project. Learning how to further inspect barn find vehicle's. Don't forget to pull the dash to see what mice left inside there.👍
Amazing what you can do with all that space and equipment on hand! Thanks for taking us along for the ride. So much work going on behind the scenes.
My favorite part is the T roof panel removal. I was rooting for you to find the tape! This is an awesome restoration project. Thanks!
One word. WOW! Love the attention to detail that you exhibit. I, like you, if its apart, clean it and fix everything you can to avoid going in there again.
Its amazing what a little tlc can do to make the car sparkle again. Im super jealous, but im excited for you. Definitely cant wait to see her back together and done!
Very good to see your attention to detail and getting EVERYTHING out that could be an issue. That front bumper removal was just nuts. I'm sure they went overboard with the fasteners, and it can be done a lot more efficiently going back together. Same with the grille. The 'retainers' are just bogus. All the furry invaders inside were to be expected I guess, after sitting all those years. At least the wiring survived for the most part. Looking forward to the next episode!!😉👍👍
Loving this series! Great Scott!
OMG don't stop this video. Need 24/7 live video! Just can't get enough of it.
You don't even have to be a DeLorean fan ,but Alex's excitement with this project makes it a good watch . She's going to look new after you get done with it . I don't know how you remember where all the parts /nuts? bolts go after taking it all apart .
Loving this project! Great work Alex!!!! Good luck👍 love from the U.K 🇬🇧
Yeah that PRV is definitely not a very efficient engine, so even with the relatively light body, it does not surprise me that the DeLorean weren't that good on mileage... maybe the manual could be a little bit better.
Absolutely amazing detailed video on how to disassemble a DeLorean, this (series) should be marked as a whole tutorial. Just amazing job!
Alex I’m loving the Delorean series!!!! I can’t wait for the next video!!!!!
Great content. I'm here for the long haul cause you don't see such a cool project every day. That stainless steel looks so good after the cleaning. It's really kitchen worthy. 🌟
Absolutely love what you are doing Alex and can’t wait to see the final result.
Wow you have done a lot of work on it and it is coming out so very nice. Can't wait to see more.
Hey Alex, I'm really enjoying your DeLorean restoration. Looking forward to the next installment. Cheers!
Alex, these cleaning video’s are so satisfying! Keep up the hard work.
This video was so satisfying. I really like these deep dive restoration videos. Please keep them coming.
Very interesting project Alex! .. Looking forward to the see it all!
Great project! Love the car, totally understand what you are doing. And it looks nicely simple to take apart! Good look!
Seems like it’s worse than I would’ve thought, but glad you are persevering and getting through it.👍
Huge admiration Alex for the detail and hard work your doing with this car so far, watching this in Ireland it makes me proud to see this start to come back to life like the day it left the factory!👍🇮🇪
It was Northern Ireland, with UK backing, IIRC.
But in Northern Ireland (U.K) not Ireland
I had never seen a DeLorean taken part before.I really learned a lot.very fascinating.
Great second video Alex looking forward to the rest and the finished Dolorean.
Really enjoyed this episode. The Delorean is a fascinating vehicle, and it was particularly interesting seeing it disassembled for restoration. With regard to the engine, please resist the urge to LS-swap it. What would be really cool would be for you to add a period correct twin turbo setup (which DMC was developing as an option, but just ran out of time and money before they went bankrupt). This would improve the power issue tremendously, and keep in the spirit of the original car. Keep up the great work, looking forward to seeing the next segment.
Replacing the original engine and transmission with a modern boosted V6 with a strong transmission would have been so great. The original engine should be kept in dry storage. I don't think swapping with a LS is good as the sound and look is totally different from the original engine.
The hints he's dropping plus the fact that he's an LS guy plus Midwest Delorean has LS swap kits available.... you guess whats next
