1981 DeLorean DMC-12 5-Speed

This 1981 DeLorean DMC-12 was originally designated as a company vehicle and assigned to Johnny Carson, who was an early investor in the DeLorean Motor Company in the late 1970s. The car was later displayed at the Canton Classic Car Museum in Canton, Ohio, before residing with collectors in Ohio and California. The car features unfinished stainless steel body panels over a gray leather interior and is powered by a 2. 85-liter V6 paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes gullwing doors, power windows, air conditioning, four-wheel disc brakes, and an AM/FM/cassette stereo. The DMC-12 was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro of Italdesign and features unfinished stainless steel panels over a fiberglass underbody mounted to a Lotus-derived double-Y chassis. Distinguishing features include gullwing doors, a front spoiler, integrated urethane front and rear fascia panels, and a louvered rear window cover. A video of the power antenna operating can be seen here. 14? front and 15? rear turbine-style aluminum wheels are wrapped in Goodyear NCT tires measuring 195/60 up front and 235/60 out back. Braking is handled by four-wheel discs, and the four-wheel independent suspension utilizes coil springs at each corner.
