That photo is going to be iconic when the restoration is complete.

I was in California a few months back to visit my friends place and see his collection. He owns that same Delorean! I actually had a chance to sit in it. He did an amazing job restoring it to screen accurate condition.

Shortly after he put it on display at SDCC. There's a few pictures of it at superherohype.com.

Have you guys seen this? ;-)

Various parties have been trying to save these cars for over 10 years now. I don't expect Universal will ever do anything about them.

It's truely sad to see this isn't it. You would think one of their most successful films of all time would encourage them to take care of the props and show them in all their glory in the parks :confused

Was at Universal Studios last year on the VIP tour and saw the car's just wasting away. Sad

I always loved the pink Edsel with the hoverconversion. I have a photograph I took of my dad standing beside the car on the lot just after the film came out when it was still "new". I wish I could see it again, no matter what it's shape, because the one thing I'd really like to get good pics of is the hoverconversion bits and pieces... especially the part that goes over the front wheels... if I could get nice high-res shots of those bits, I'd be happy.

Be happy.

Wow... aye, as of now, I AM happy, lol... thanks for posting that!

It looks as though that hoverconversion wheel plate/cover might actually be made from a automotive wheel boot lock. Gotta do some research on that now...

I found this on YouTube... not much, and the camera work is crappy, but it's something.
