Back to the future for Waterhead

[WaterH]

So I got the computer from our business at home and now I can start threads again. Of course, I still like writing on my old IPad, so I start there and edit the thread here. Going to test if I can edit the title, but for now I started with the tittle I wanted.

Why you might ask? I got home yesterday and went to the mailbox and there is a newsletter that our electric company puts out every month. In the back, they have local want ads. I like to look them over even though there's never nothing of interest in there. Well, long story short, this followed me home today.

I'll be trippin through time anyday now.

Is that plywood on your trailer?

Are you suggesting that trailer won't haul a 9000 lb. excavator?

 

[Jackie Treehorn]

LS swap it.

 

[WaterH]

LS swap it.

They do make kits to swap in a LS4. Might do that, but first I'd like to get this running. (Ran when parked)

 

[Sterlingfire]

I'm not sure.
How i should feel right now.

 

[mdmike]

I always wondered if you could polish a Delorean. Google did not disappoint.

 

[SLOWPOKE693]

If you don't swap a helicopter engine into this thing im going to be pissed!

 

[subybaja]

How long until it floats?

Wonder if that's a wrap? Not sure if I like it better that the brushed look.

 

[[486]]

I'd bet it's something done after it gets crashed
the brushed finish is hard to replicate I guess

Polishing is a big business. That's definitely not a wrap.

Can't see the front and back good, but the front and rear 4-5" are not made of metal. So they can't be polished.

I am not suggesting anything, I am stating that plywood on the floor of a trailer is a horrible idea for many reasons. The main one is plywood loves to separate when exposed to sun and rain, two things Floriduh has in abundance, which ruins it's strength. Even if there is planking underneath, you can't see it and can't see when it's broken/rotted and needs replacing. Another issue is wet plywood is slick as shit and can make loading a vehicle a pain in the ass. It's just a bad idea, in my opinion.

The people of Florida are lucky he didn't flat tow it with a moped.

 

[Saloon65]

You know a thread’s gone to shit when the plywood tech takes over..

 

[Ted_Kaczynski]

Plywood will find its way into that DeLorean, probably making a hull or pontoons so it'll float.

Great info, but to answer your original question, no. It's all treated 2 by 8 decking.

Believe it or not, there is a plywood cover behind the pax seat. (Covers electrical fuses and relays.)

So I got it off the trailer and started working on it. It won't start and has no spark at the plugs. In the electrical box I found this thing labeled F-cap. I guess it's a ferrite capacitor. Anyways it was unplugged, so I plugged it in. Good thing I had the battery charger on it caused it dimmed the lights in the shop. Still wouldn't start, but it seemed like the car got taller.

Ill keep you up dated.

 

[Benny]

F-cap is the Flux Capacitor. Get it running and get it to 88 mph and you will find out what it does.











Who didn't see that coming?
