About Me
My name is Tamir Ardon and I am 25 years old. I currently live in Los Angeles, but my permanent residence is Chicago. My educational background is as follows: I did my Undergraduate degree at Beloit College, where I majored in Philosophy while taking the required science courses for Medical School. In 2002 I attended Rush Medical College, where I spent two years working towards my Masters Degree in Anatomy and Cell Biology. I am now pursuing a dream of mine, film production. I am currently attending UCLA's graduate film program for Producing.
My background with DeLoreans comes at an early age. I actually remember the first time I saw a DeLorean. It was 1986 and my mother pulled into a gas station. The man who owned the car was nice enough to let me sit in his car. I may have only been six years old at the time, but sitting in that car was something I knew I would do again. A year before then Back To The Future was released, and the combination of the two brought a deep passion and hobby for both the DeLorean and Back To The Future, as can be seen in the Back To The Future section of the site.
My DeLorean was made in 1982 and is VIN #11474. The car is manual and has a gray leather interior with black leather seats. To find out more about my car check out the My DeLorean section. My DeLorean only has 15,000 miles on it, and has been babied for its entire life. If you look at the Maintenance records on the site, you can see how much the previous owner loved this car.
I took possession of the car in May 1997. The previous owner had many exotic sports cars and decided he didn't need the DeLorean anymore. The car was in excellent condition when I got it and I have been trying to perfect it during my ownership. I do what I can, but I leave the big stuff for my mechanic.
The DeLorean is not my daily driver, but I do drive it. When the season is right, I will put about 30 miles on the car a week. Between school and other obligations I have in life, I make as much time as I can for the DeLorean and this web-site. I hope you enjoy what my brother and I have done here, and hopefully you have learned some new things about this wonderful car.
