This DeLorean Limo Will Allow You To Be The Star Of Any 80s Prom

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:20 am, January 22nd, 2013

I had an 80s prom for my birthday last December and I would have given anything to roll up in this.

It began as a sketch and an order for a custom stainless steel frame after meeting John DeLorean at the DeLorean Car Show in 2000, and took the following 12 years to complete. Rich had hoped to give John a ride in his creation, but it was nowhere near completion when DeLorean died in March of 2005.” One more picture after the jump.

While we may have the technology, we’re nowhere near using it to make our cars fly but that didn’t stop one gentleman from trying.

It’s true that New York taxis usually drive like maniacs but it’s pretty difficult to get up to 88 mph in Manhattan. Unless you’ve got a hover conversion, of course. Unfortunately, this isn’t real. Mike Lubrano imagined what a Back to the Future taxi would look like for a NYC fashion house called Nooka. Hit the jump to see it with the doors open.
