Just wondering

[bluespace88 9]

Anyone ever notice the "wheels" on the flying delorean?

[♠Grim♂ Reaper 1666◙ 17]

wow lazy universerval didnt even hide them

[archer9234 20]

Yeah. very old. They couldn't really hide it. Further inside the car would wobble or tip over. No such thing as digital removal back then.

Heres another one. You remember the delorean doc broke because of the whiskey? We saw this side with the off road wheels

But thats the only side they changed it

You know its the whiskey delorean because of the gas flap. The other deloreans in the movies had no gas flaps.

[archer9234 20]

Makes sense. Saves money.

[bluespace88 9]

amazing what you can find.

Also, the Universal Studios Florida car that hscitpe sat in was the delorean used for the wheelie scene on the tracks in bttf3.

[hscitpe 6]

I feel honored that I got to sit in Back to the Future History. The wheel things are old.

EDIT: Wait, the one for USF was never ever used. USF bought a DeLorean and had it converted.

The closest I got was to sit in a real DeLorean.

[bluespace88 9]

Not according to the bttf delorean geeks. They proved that it was the railroad car with lots of modifications.

[bluespace88 9]

If you bothered to look underneath the delorean, you'd find this

All the film cars had the exhausts set up like that.

[hscitpe 6]

Bob Gale said in an interview for BTTFStuff.com that neither park got a screen used car for display outside the Ride, which is where the particular DeLorean I sat in came from. USH got some of the screen used ones, and put one on display next to the Ride. Plus, look at Mr. Fusion. The one on here is made from wood wrapped in an aluminum sheet. The only reason they did that was because, by the time USF commissioned the car, Krups stopped making the Coffina model coffee grinder, and getting one for the car would be to expensive.

EDIT: Better picture

well, don't argue with me about it. Argue with the bttf delorean experts, who dug up plenty of research.

Besides, that delorean was only seen for the wheelie shot and the bridge shot, and that was it. The rest were A/B car.

[hscitpe 6]

I might just do that when I'm not doing five things at once, lol.

[bluespace88 9]

heres another thing. The USF car still has the riggings for making the delorean pop a wheelie. You'll notice that this undercarriage is not stock. More, but I have to go now.

Funny how you're trying to deny you sat in a screen used car

[hscitpe 6]

It's a world gone MAD! I figured it out, I watched the interview again, it wasn't USF it was USJ that commissioned a build car, but then why is Mr. Fusion all effed up?

[Carlos85G 22]

Probably vandals breaking parts from the cars (like with the DMC plate on the A car, now replaced) or Universal itself taking parts for auctions or for their private collections (Bob Gale's original Mr. Fusion desk lamp); so, they had to complete the cars somehow to put them on display.

[archer9234 20]

I wish they had the fiberglass DeLorean still.

[hscitpe 6]

They have the molds, and a real working DMC-12 was made from them.

[bluespace88 9]

Well, look at what happened to the A car.

Then

Now

Just ignore Mr. Fusion and look what happened to the rest of it.

[bluespace88 9]

so this was how the railroad delorean got destroyed....

And the two "hero" cars of the movies

[Carlos85G 22]

Hmm, Kevin Pike (if I'm right), with Sean's DeLorean (right), and which DeLorean is on the left, Gary's second?

[Joe Statler 0]

They're so beautiful

[bluespace88 9]

is that gary's second, can't really tell from the pic.? I know the its seans from the blue light on the interior.

And yes, thats Kevin Pike

[bluespace88 9]
