Description
French Text This famous dialogue between Marty McFly and "Doc" Emmett Brown is from the movie "Back to the Future," however few know that the De Lorean is not a gimmick invented to a film but a series of car produced in the early eighties. Richly illustrated with period documents and numerous press clippings, this book reveals how John Zachary DeLorean prodigy, an engineer who became vice president of the prestigious firm General Motors, gave his name to a car whose marketing was a resounding failure despite its motto "live the dream," but which has become one of the most famous icons of the automotive world and, of course, film.
