MustardJohn, Hi - John Delorean's "Cosworth Vega's" were only produced for two years, 1975 and 76. The first one's were all painted black with gold striping but in '76 more colors were added. Each one had a special serial numbered plaque on the dash which was a gold colored machined metal insert simular to the old T/A's silver metal dash. They were seen around Dallas often enough and a high school friend had one. There is one currently driving around in Garland, Texas. These cars had a 4 cylinder 2 liter twin overhead cam sixteen valve engine, electronic fuel injection and a factory stainless steel exhaust header. The Cosworth was an attept to keep the Vega alive but I seem to remember that it cost almost as much as a Corvette did then and my (then) '75 Chevy Monza with a factory V-8 and a four speed ate it's lunch. I understand that tey are collectors items now.
