An authentic 1982 DeLorean DMC‑12 transformed with screen‑inspired lighting effects. Perfect for 80s themed events, fundraisers, BTTF movie screenings, parades, film shoots and special occasions
Custom microcontroller-driven lighting effects transform every prop into a dynamic showpiece. Strategic use of high-brightness LEDs and animated filaments creates the illusion of energy, plasma, and electrical flow that delivers a vivid, cinematic time-machine presence that absolutely pops in lower-light venues. Unlike standard movie-spec builds, this car's upgraded lighting design takes immersion to the next level. Even the Flux Capacitor is enhanced with brighter LEDs and glowing filaments to fully sell the concept of raw energy in motion.
Fully insured and registered as an antique in Virginia, this DeLorean is event-ready with safety at the forefront. A master battery cutoff ensures compliance with fire codes for indoor venues, while all lighting effects are powered by a dedicated auxiliary system which keeps the show running safely and reliably. Years of owner experience at car shows and charity events ensure professional handling every time.
Serving Northern Virginia and the greater DC–Maryland–Virginia region, with a focus on accessible, local events. Limiting bookings within this area keeps travel time reasonable and ensures the vehicle arrives in top condition. Fewer, carefully chosen engagements mean every event receives full attention and a high-quality experience.
A showcase of custom lighting builds that make this DeLorean truly one-of-a-kind.
High-brightness LED filaments and back-lighting animation sequences create a vivid sense of electrical energy in motion... a one-of-a-kind build unmatched anywhere in the world. "This is what makes time travel possible!" ~ E. L. Brown
High-brightness LED filaments and animation sequences create a vivid sense of electrical energy coursing through the rear pods... a one-of-a-kind upgrade build unmatched anywhere in the world. You can even hear the crackle of high-voltage energy flowing through the system.
Time Computer, rear-wall electronics, Flux Capacitor, and a bank of overhead switches—all live and functional... create an immersive cockpit feel that reads on camera and in person.
Blue flux bands, a roof-mounted tachyon emitter with infinity-mirror effect, and unique reactor props create an unmatched night presence.
