Matthew Riese and friends built a replica of a DeLorean frame in somebody’s yard, which is pretty awesome by itself, but then they stepped up their game and turned it into a hovercraft as well. That’s a life lesson right there: when life gives you scrap metal, make a DeLorean Hovercraft, because hell yeah.
And I apologize in advance for mentioning Jesse James (I don’t even know if Sandra Bullock dumped him yet and I don’t care), but “Monster Garage” did a full episode on combining a working hovercraft with a DeLorean frame. I don’t know if they succeeded, because I got about two minutes into the episode before James’s's’s's monotone voice put me to sleep. I’ll never know if he got that Choco Taco.
To see the version Riese built, check out the three videos below. No footage yet of this thing actually driving.
I totally volunteer to help out with the test drive. Where we’re going, we won’t need roads. Well, okay, some roads. Very flat ones.

This reminds me of when I made my desktop into a hovercraft. I called it H.P. Hovercraft, and it was filled with unspeakable evils and eldritch horrors
I’m pretty sure I remember that episode of Monster Garage, and in the end they couldn’t quite get enough thrust to lift the frame completely off the ground. Those shows all sort of run together in my mind, and if I think about it too hard the narrator’s voice starts shouting in my head and I have to go outside and hunt something.
not having enough thrust to lift the frame is one of the chief complaints my dates have.
pretty cool, shame there is no “Power of Gravity” song
