Fixing the World's Cheapest DeLorean For LS Fest! | Roadworthy Rescues 

Yes

This isn't the full episode. The full one is about 20-30 min longer and has more of the shop work, and more racing at the end. It's on Motortrend's subscription streaming service. (or , y'know,* other* places...) This one is from Season 2, episode 12

@@pileofstuff MotorTrend doesn't have a streaming service anymore.

The full episodes require a MotorTrend subscription. I don't know why they don't just put them all on youtube, the ad revenue would probably dwarf whatever they're getting for subscriptions right now.....

@@MaverickBlue42 There is no MotorTrend subscription! It is all folded into Discovery+.

YES

I don't agree (Matt's car show has the greatest sad music soundtrack when visits a junkyard)

+1

People always think that their choice of music is the best in the World

But this is for the older folk

Same In Denmark…. Sub 5 plus years

Same here in Sweden

Can’t you Utilize a VPN service to access the Content! The Ole’ Lady has One for the Crypto BullShat. I’m not sure what Restrictions you Fella’s Speak on. I like Derek but I’m not Paying to Watch Motor Trend, I’ll catch what I can and Just Stew on the Other Material. Keep it Safe Out There

What? Really? I didn't know about such restrictions at all

Throw on your pirate hats mateys 😂

It's ok, he may have upset all 10 of you but think of the 5 million of us that laughed at the joke. LOL JK! You got to admit the thing had it's shortcomings. That engine was garbage. It was more about the time though, smog regulations and import rules, and trying to start a car buisness was all just way too much. So it led to a limited run, and thanks to several famous uses of it, it is a cult of personality now. It makes most everyone smile still and is a feature everywhere it goes. So many of us Gen Xers dreamed of owning one sone day. Awesome you managed to get one! Will check your channel out. Did you keep engine original? I am sure they could be made work but it might take injection rework, wiring rework, etc I would think? Derek is just trying to be funny. Not sure it really had the desired effect though. Maybe should have read the room on this one. His lack of respect for this is cringeworthy.

A guy's got a used genuine engine the purist can have to make him feel better...

if the purist cared , the dmc wouldnt be dead in a field

It was ruined long ago.

@@pileofstuff, BINGO!

One can hope.

And Bosch Jetronic. Which is great when it works.

They really are treasures, They're part of America motor history, and are really expensive

Part of American history made in Northern Ireland

@@Sanjuro2112 A lot of America's history has come from other countrys like the Statue of Liberty or hamburgers

I’m not even a Delorean fanatic, and it hurts me to see this thing being manhandled like this. There’s only so many original parts left. Even if you want to do a swap, you don’t have to cut through so many components that just don’t exist anymore. Where’s the car guy love for cars?

& Brakes

That stainless steel body is mighty heavy, physics is against it.

@@habsom1406 incorrect, stainless panels bolted to a fiberglass composite body

I believe he's been to the Freedom Factory, one too many times. He's breathing in those Florida boy race gas fumes a little too much... Or just about enough. 😅

cleetus is a jackass.

Yes!! Should of came with at least a SBC 350!!

Yeah the designers skimped on the engine power.

Yep.

totally

FWIW, the original prototypes weighed about 500lbs less than the production models and were also mid engine like an MR2. I think it is fair to say what came out of the factory was not what the original designers had in mind from the rip.

Lasted about the same length of time too..fairly certain titanic made it more miles than most delorens

@@rival9417 on the other hand the grey furguson tractor and Dunlop tyres were more of a success story..

@@nialldoherty7122 don't forget the jump jet.

Titanic was built in Belfast but the Captain was an Englishman.

@@robblack7560 no way😲....lol titanic is the most known and published maritime disaster,,,I think most people know that.....did you also know he was responsible for titanic sinking? Due to his lack of regard to iceberg warnings and going too fast for the conditions? ..built by the Irish..destroyed by the English...its in keeping with normal relations between the two....😉

NOPE.

This show existed prior to Derrick?

Where can you do that ?

The valley of DEATH IS STRONG.

How many times have you heard the national anthem, are you over that too? Those red blooded American screeching eagles of the god fearing LS will never get old no matter what hood they’re under MURICA SCREEEEEEEEEEECH 🦅🇺🇸

actually the back shelf behind the drivers seat in the DeLorean is made of wood...

@@Flamehara "How many times have you heard the national anthem" Too many "are you over that too" Yes But I have no issue with any LS swap, keep those coming.

Reliable, plenty of HP, great aftermarket performance support, and they fit nicely in a Delorean. It's a win win.

But are really expensive. I think they said the gas pump thing costo $1,000
