In Hazelton, Pennsylvania some unlucky driver lost their DeLorean DMC-12 to an engine fire that grilled the entire back end of the car. The owner, Darryl Givens doesn't know what caused the fire and has an insurance inspection soon to go over the damages. What sucks about a DeLorean fire is that parts are becoming a lot harder to find these days. On the bright side, the DeLorean Motor Company has originals for sale and a new electric version is on the way. The other thing that sucks about having your DeLorean ignite is that you will get a lot of Back to the Future jokes thrown at you, but you knew the risk when you bought it. Check the Hazle Twp. Fire/Rescue Station 10 Facebook page for a sad clip of the car burning while other drivers pass by like nothing happened.
