Way to ugly up the Jag there, Chet



Oh yeah, saw this in Greenville, Illinois. No flux capacitor though, sorry.

It gives him mad downforce when his VTAK kicks in at light speed yo!

Funny, I saw a DeLorean the other day, also...it was driving by, so I couldn't see whether it was flux capacitor-equipped (my favorite movie, BTW).

DUMB!

Boy, that DeLorean needs some new wheels! And a polishing!

No way on the wheels. With a car like that, you just gotta keep it original.

A good polishing would be a nice touch though. I wonder how well all that steel holds up?

That's true. I love how much of a classic the car is, but IMO the styling isn't so great on that one. If it had some nice wheels, I would like it a lot more. But like you said, it wouldn't be original anymore.

There's a Delorean on sale in my home town for about $19k. Some old lady had it sitting in her garage for over 10 years so it's supposed to be in pretty good condition.

You're favorite movie?! C'mon Setec.

Time circuits on... Flux Capacitor... fluxing... Engine running... All right!

Or how about: Uh... now Biff, I want make sure that we get two coats of wax this time. Not just one.

Notice they made Biff a mobile detailer baffoon. Like he wound up that way because he was such a dumbo. I'm sure the detailers here have a bone to pick with that!
