Jack Delorean's 1932 Ford roadster
I follow videos from the Irontrap Garage channel on Youtube - it's a young guy who's heavily into traditional hot rods. His latest score is unearthing a 1932 Ford roadster from a dilapidated tire repair shop in Detroit. It's not a Pontiac, but the seller says it had been previously owned by George Delorean. Pretty cool find. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSsi-s1Ebvk&t=2s

There's an update video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_hvzdi3t_w It turns out the '32 roadster had actually been owned by Jack Delorean, not George. Matt at Irontrap was able to get hold of Jack and had a pretty cool phone conversation with him. When Jack bought it in California in about 1954, John helped him get the car shipped back to Detroit. Then, George built him a full house flathead engine and he took it racing it on Woodward Ave.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
