My latest guest is Chris Parnham, the co-author of “DeLorean – Celebrating the Impossible” an excellent book which is available from Amazon or the better option of a signed copy from The DeLorean Owners Club UK here

Chris is currently the historian of the DeLorean Owners Club UK after performing Secretary duties for a number of years.

Chris has owned 17 DeLorean’s many of which are very rare, and has also managed to buy his original back!

Netflix have released a recent documentary on the rise and fall of John DeLorean

Plus a look back at previous DeLorean content here on Automotive American

The documentary is a mixture of footage from a previous documentary and interviews with those involved at the time including family members.

For me it’s the best one so far and I guess may be the last?

For John’s back story you can go to Wikipedia

Information on the documentary can be found here at Netflix

A few years ago I interviewed Chris Parnham historian of the DeLorean Owners Club UK for my podcast, and I thought this would make a good companion to the new documentary. Details of the club can be found here

I was lucky to be given a copy of Chris’s and Andy Withers excellent book – DeLorean – Celebrating the Impossible
