Got to see the Cannonball Countach, the 5000S and 13 Deloreans!

So for those of you who frequent Fchat, you probably know who Tonylambo is. Well he has an amazing company. He has been in the business of restoring Deloreans and is now doing Lambo's as well. I am trying to get him to sign up, so hopefully he will chime in and tell you guys what he is all about! Anyway, so I knew I was going to be about 20 miles this morning from his shop. I knew he had the Cannonball Countach along with some other rare cars there, so how could I not stop by right?

Well I get to my hotel last night that is close to his shop. I know I am close by the address. I decide to walk down the street and find it for the morning. IT IS RIGHT NEXT DOOR!!!!!!! lol there are 8 Deloreans parked outside and a large DMC sign on the side of the building.

So long story short, I stopped by this morning and they were extremly nice and showed me around! Let me take as many pictures as I wanted as well as talked to me about what they are working on, ect ect. How cool! Anyway, on to the pics!!!!!!

So this is the outside of the building....









And this is the lobby area you walk into....

Wow that is really cool I have always thought the Delorean was a cool car. I saw one for sale a couple months ago for about $30,000.

That's no replica flamborgini poontach there. Those rear tire are massive, no wonder every teenage boy had a poster of that car on their wall back in the day.

I don't think I've EVER seen tires that wide before! That Countach is friggin' crazy! Think it has enough tailpipes?!?!

Is your friend in cahoots or competition with the DMC manufacturer in texas?
