A lot of Saab parts right? Simpler old school electronics and carbueration. Should be able to keep one running. There is always duct tape.
Sadly the Chineese pay top dollar for scrap stainless.
The engine and drivetrain are Volvo and Renault. The fiberglass body substructure, S/S panels, interior, etc are all DeLorean specific parts, and the chassis was developed as a joint venture between DeLorean and Lotus. I don't think there are any SAAB parts, but there are a few misc components manufactured by other automotive companies.
The cars are also not carburated, they have BOSCH K-Jetronic mechanical fuel injection. The all aluminum PRV-6 engines were used in a variety of other cars up until 1992 in the Eagle Premier.
