Fixing the World's Cheapest DeLorean For LS Fest! | Roadworthy Rescues
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Derek goes off the deep end with an '80s icon, the DeLorean. It's been wrecked, painted, and doesn't run, but Derek and his friends change all that with a good old junkyard LS. See if they can power this time machine and make it to LS Fest in Kentucky.

This build should have been on Derick's channel. Would have liked to see a much more in depth look at what it took to make this build happen.

This isn't the full episode. The full one is about 20-30 min longer and has more of the shop work, and more racing at the end. It's on Motortrend's subscription streaming service. (or , y'know,* other* places...) This one is from Season 2, episode 12

I’m not even a Delorean fanatic, and it hurts me to see this thing being manhandled like this. There’s only so many original parts left. Even if you want to do a swap, you don’t have to cut through so many components that just don’t exist anymore. Where’s the car guy love for cars?

Man, you really like the hard cases. Tyler Hoover thinks he's got lemons. Hoovie doesn't know real pain. This is a guys car channel here. Love your channel....😊
Now that just looked like a fun car to build. No special requirements, no parameters that you had to meet. Just build it and drive it. Love those kind.
This is a dream come true for any DMC fans! Thanks for the build!
if this is "budget" then I only want budget builds! Its BEAUTIFUL
If that delorean could smile, it would he grinning gullwing to gullwing. Thats the most fun that car has ever had in its life.
That is so much quicker than a regular DeLorean, and much more fun.
Needs a suspension upgrade & u have a winner in my book 🤩💪

FWIW, the original prototypes weighed about 500lbs less than the production models and were also mid engine like an MR2. I think it is fair to say what came out of the factory was not what the original designers had in mind from the rip.
That jacked up rig in the background is interesting looking.
PRV: Peugeot, Renault, Volvo. This three companies have developped this engine together in the 70's. Very reliable engine but not very powerfull. In the 90's a turbo version of this engine was engaged in the 24h of le Mans and put out 600 Hp on the Venturi 400 LM.
I must have missed Derek’s episode with the monster truck!!?? Or maybe it’s coming
Now thats a Delorean they should have made😂
Awesome build! Do more with it on your main channel. Put an aluminum block in it to reduce the weight in the back, it might handle better (with better suspension too).
so glad hes on t.v i knew this was gonna happen, you should have been on t.v a long time ago, great work Derick!
OK, The LS Delorean vs the Tony Angelo "Sour-krout"
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Can’t believe their worth money today lol pretty cool
The Roadworthy Exotics jingle then immediately dropping the engine was peak timing lol.
Dude, Freiburger and Finnegan are jealous.
Drives like a cinder block but man it sounds good!
Thanks Holmes!! Love the show!!
Great Scott!
Really Rad that you guys did this to a old DeLorean? I seen like 4 people dones this so far on KZread. Still REALLY Rad to see!!!
Gotta admit, that “too big of a cam” sounds great and looks like it was right at home in this combo.

Never seen a delorean go that fast
Coolest DeLorean that I've ever seen!
Are these cut down? It feels like I'm watching the video in fast forward or something. I really appreciate the length of his normal videos a lot more
Are you going to do a win the LS DeLorean Drawing;-) That car is awesome!
you have made me a happy person by doing this swap.

The valley of DEATH IS STRONG.
Now it actually matches the sound with the engine. In the movie they had that v8 sound with stock 6 banger.
Nice I like these episodes
What an incredible episode! Only thing that would have made it better was another hour or split up into a series of 3 or 4.
A v8 is what those cars needed. I love those cars
nice dodge truck in the background. love those wheels on it.
That's so amazing fastest DeLorean out there
Derrick,that was very cool
The behind the scene work needed to make that thing just be able to drive, would have been fun to see, brakes, suspension, wiring and getting it all to work together with the old.
Great video!
It's a shame we didn't get to see an in-depth build. Would be great to see Derrick go over this on VGG. These shows don't really cover much of anything and are more for entertainment. Derrick, please do an episode with the Delorean.
AWESOME!
V stands for Volvo. And the "flapper" is an airflow meter. Think this are a k-jetronic injection system.
HOLY SHEEIGHT!!!! I"M LAUGHING SO HARD WITH ENJOYMENT!!!!!! Flippin Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
