Polo423 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2009 I always thought that Doc had bought the Delorean brand new. But then in watching BTTF1 recently I noticed that the Del has 33k+ miles on it! Perhaps that was due to Doc testing the vehicle? Although 33k seems like a lot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
archer9234 20 Report post Posted March 15, 2009 Well it was a 81 Del. The movie was in 85. He must of used the car for normal purposes, prior to using it as the time machine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John DeLorean 0 Report post Posted March 18, 2009 If that is so, then he could've gotten an '82 or '81, but I'm not sure what he got. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joe Statler 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2009 I wonder how long it took doc to build the TM. Maybe he bought it new, drove it a bit, and then started building the TM in '82 or '83. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
