[DeTomaso] NPC - Always wanted a DeLorean? POSSIBLE SCAM

[Nolan Scheid]

Thank you Jim,
Good eye for the details!

It was fun to take a shot at it but I have already been out bid. Besides, Mikey will tell you that I 
already have too many other projects to finish before I start one more.
:)

After I finish the Pantera, I really think I need to try a Factory five car. This video gets me 
thinking about the possibilities:

9.75/138mph

Best regards,
Nolan
