Open and Closing DeLorean Doors

Ought to be easy, ought to be simple enough...yet we still see people doing it wrong and damaging things. Enjoy!

It sounds simple enough - opening and closing the doors on a DeLorean - but over the years, we've been amazed by the number of people who really don't do it ...

UPDATE: Texas Single Plate Bill Passes Committee; Moves to Senate Floor

Many DeLorean owners would prefer not drill holes in the front fascia/bumper to accept a front license plate. DMC supports this bill and encourages all past, present and future DeLorean owners to do the same!

S.B. 2012 has been introduced in Texas to allow the display of only a single, rear-mounted license plate for passenger vehicles if the vehicle is unable to display a front license plate. The bill passed the Senate Transportation Committee and awaits consideration by the full Senate.

The Real Reason for Texas' Rolling Blackouts

Very limited staff in the facility today 2/18/21 - expect more tomorrow and full-staff Monday, 2/22/21. For those interested in what happened and why, this is a good, accurate, article from our friends at Gizmodo

More than four million people are without power in Texas on Tuesday morning after a serious winter storm. Like clockwork, reports of frozen wind turbines in Texas have given conservatives a new scapegoat in their unending battle to smear renewable energy.

02/16/2021

Still closed today and another storm coming through tonight...thanks for all you support! We'll be back in as soon as we can!

02/15/2021

Due to weather conditions in the Houston area, our Texas location is closed Monday, February 15th. Phones are forwarded to our California location. Thank you.

Bought a reproduction of this part and found that they tend to bind up? Originals are still available at a better price! https://store.delorean.com/101363-manual-trans-crossgate-cable.html

Lots of places use our DeLorean part numbers as identifiers for their "cross-reference" or "copycat" parts, creating confusion in the marketplace. This New Original Stock, or NOS, part traces its origins back to 1982, when the DeLorean factory closed.

This past Friday, December 28th, a semi-truck making a delivery to our company left our parking lot the opposite direction from which it entered, and the trailer caught on some low hanging power lines. The driver had been to our facility many times in the past without problems.

As the trailer caught the lines, three power poles were damaged - one broken completely - and the connections to our building were extensively damaged. Our electric company had crews out within a few hours and the public infrastructure was repaired by late Friday night.

Our electrician came by during the repairs and evaluated the damage to our building. Because of the extent of the damage, we will need to get permits from the City of Houston to make the repairs. We were able to get this on Monday, 12/31 but still expect a week or so for permanent repairs to be completed. In the meantime, we had a generator delivered and wired into our building and our internet service (albeit slower speed) has been restored.

We're a bit behind from two short weeks back to back and this incident, but are hopeful to be caught up by this time next week. Thanks for your patience.

Almanac: The DeLorean

Anyone else up early enough today to catch this on "CBS Sunday Morning"?

On January 21, 1981, the first DeLorean DMC-12, with its striking gull-wing doors, rolled off the production line. It would be one of only 9,000 made. But how many others cars got to travel back in time? Jane Pauley reports.

Imagine you're working in an automobile parts factory in 1981 that happens to supply parts to DeLorean Motor Company. Your job is to wrap the finished parts in day-old newspapers for shipping to the DeLorean factory. And this is the newspaper that you just happen to have been supplied with for this purpose.

During our inventory underway now, we opened a box of parts that had not been touched in nearly 36 years and discovered this newspaper wrapping some DeLorean parts.

08/30/2017

Most of the DMC (Texas) staff is back at work today. We will answering our own phones and getting caught up while we clean up. Other than few roof leaks and part of our big sign blowing off, we had no significant damage to the facility, and no damage to cars in our possession or inventory. All staff are safe, but some are displaced as a result of flooding or storm damage. Our showroom WILL BE CLOSED TODAY. More updates as they become available.

08/29/2017

Ok, we're going to be closed Tuesday, as well. Rain continued all night Monday and still coming. Some staff have been forced to evacuate their homes due to rising water. Up to 15 more inches of rain expected between now and Saturday. River and bayou levels still rising as reservoir and lake releases continue.

Crystal was again able to inspect the facility today and everything is in good order.

08/28/2017

All is well at DMC this morning. Crystal was able to get to the building and check inside and out. Some minor roof leaks but no damage to cars or inventory.

Still checking on all our staff to determine when we will re-open. Phones transferred to DMC California. Further updates as news is available.

DMC will be closed tomorrow and possibly Tuesday in order to give the flood waters a chance to recede and to allow emergency responders time to begin the process of recovery. More updates tomorrow.

As we watch the weather in regards to Hurricane Harvey it's still looking that landfall will be far enough south not to affect things here in our Humble, Texas facility. In the event Harvey turns to the north and threatens our area, for the safety of our employees and visitors we will be closed until the threat has passed. Watch this page for updates on our schedule.

An old favorite returns - better than ever! Originally designed by and for the DeLorean Motor Company (Texas) in the late 1990s to combat the Texas heat and sun, this fitted sunshade goes outside the car, with elastic loops that secure it to the striker pins in the door jambs, and flaps on the sides and top to secure in the door closing area. Fits under the wiper arms to completely secure it to the car. Folds nicely and stores neatly in the integrated storage bag.

Tested in Texas and shown to reduce interior heat by more than 50 degrees Fahrenheit!

DeLorean Motor Company has identified an issue that affects some of the 107000 Fuel Pump/Sender Module that could allow the fuel pump to continue running if the inertia switch is “tripped”. Today we are sending a letter to all purchasers of record of the 107000 Fuel Pump/Sender Module with instructions on how to quickly and easily test the unit and make a minor modification to correct this issue if required.

DMC Texas, DMC California, DMC Midwest, DMC Florida (Orlando) and DMC Northwest have all supplied us with lists of purchasers to whom we have sent these letters. Gulf Coast Motorworks (formerly DMC Florida in Bonita Springs, Florida) and DeLorean Europe (formerly DMC Europe in The Netherlands) have been unwilling or unable to supply us with the names of the customers who have purchased directly from either of those two locations, though we have supplied them with the same information and asked that they forward it on to their customers.

Some of the cars that these were installed into have undoubtedly been sold or otherwise changed hands. Follow this link to download the contents of the letter mentioned above. https://www.delorean.com/service-bulletin-sb-07-10-2017.htm

A year or so ago, while going through our set of DeLorean factory engineering drawings, we found a revised version of the inner door seal that was scheduled to go into production in early 1982, but receivership got in the way of that. See the attached ECA that released this part for production.

We took the accompanying drawings and tooled up to make this factory designed, revised part and tested samples on our cars here for six months or so and have been very happy with them. these are now available.
