Doesn’t look like enough room to get up to speed. 😎

I had to come back to this spot to look at this car again as security told me this past Sunday was the last day this DeLorean is being put on exhibit. If you look at the cabin dashboard panel, the date time clock is real time to 2024. There is a “street tarmac” perpendicular to this spot about 3 long blocks that is closed off because it is across the 9/11 museum- probably long enough stretch for this vehicle to go top speed of 155 mph (the dashboard needle maxes out to 85 mph). The watchtower is missing though in the site…….

I just love the font logo on the left bumper, which I believe is a “rustproof font”. Very futuristic.

If you look at the front grill, it reads DMC. I am not sure if this is a coincidence or not whether that logo is trademark as the company went into production in 1981 and the rap group Run-DMC (Run D.M.C was an alternate) was founded in 1983.

I can’t help it but connect this car to the saying, “business in the front and party in the back”………

Not a lot of us can possibly fit comfortably in the driver seat, but one member here we know would fit in there comfortably like a glove…….now seeing passed the top of the steering wheel is a whole another story :sarcastic:

The DeLorean story is a fascinating one, tied closely with Lotus founder Colin Chapman. Framing John DeLorean is a pretty decent watch, if you don't know the story.
 
No, we saw as many as 6 one day, two adults and four little ones. But we saw turkeys every day. Also a few deer, a fox, bighorn, pronghorn, and a buhzillion sweaty, sunburned tourists.
 
My favorite NYC Skyscraper and there is really nothing like it as it captures the true essence of the Art Deco Period! I thought the black & white, being cloudy, just rained, the smoke coming from the street vent stacks, some of the other building lanterns that was from the Art Deco era and being in the right street (Lexington Avenue) will give the vibe on how NYC would have been during the “roaring 20’s and the 30’s”……….would have been more ideal during the fall or winter season with the old yellow cabs, during rush hour just beginning the evening shift………..with “In the mood” blaring in the background..…..

On the rooftop of the Whitney Museum overlooking south of the west end tip of the Financial District…….the cloud formation was something else that night…….

Needs a giant monkey swatting down biplanes.
 
Fan of cloud formations, especially when it is sun down where you get a mix of “white and brown colored egg shells” and when a storm is brewing. On the west end, by Hudson Piers…..
