88MPH: The Story of the DeLorean Time Machine | Full Documentary

This made me cry. Not because I’m sad and lonely but because it took me back to a time and place where life was good, I was young and care free and everything was just good. BTTF has been such a vital part of my life since I saw it in 1985. I can remember renting it on Beta and me and my mom sitting down and watching it one night. God rest her soul, this movie gives me happy thoughts of that night we watched it. Her excitement was that of mine. My first concert as a 15 year old was Huey Lewis in 1986 because of Back to the Future! I have all the posters including the BTTF 2 Coming Soon poster. I have fan club magazines, comic books, Mad Magazine with BTTF on the cover, figures, I even paid $1700 to build the Eaglemoss 1/8 BTTF Delorean! Heck, on my 51st birthday this year, I went and got my first tattoo…the Outtatime license plate and the BTTF arrow in 3D!! This movie has lifted me up in bad times and made it better in good times. It’s not just a movie to me. It’s like an old friend..

Proud of my son's involvement in this historic restoration.

This is a perfect example of why we 80s kids will always believe it’s the greatest decade ever never to be outdone

In the end, in a way, the DeLorean Time Machine DOES make time travel possible. It takes all of us "Back To The Future" fans back in time to when we first saw the movie. When we go back, we all realize that love, friendship, encouragement, and a little ingenuity can make each of our own futures better. When we come back to the present, we can try to actively make that a part of our lives.

This is quite possibly the best documentary on the car I have seen.

Absolutely love how they remained grounded, and stuck with the idea that it needed to look like Doc Brown built it in his garage. Also love what Bob Gale said: "Sometimes, limitations on things makes you even more creative" And that's why BTTF is such an amazing film. And why the DeLorean has legendary status 👍

Considering how rare the DeLorean is today, seeing images of hundreds of them sitting next to each other outside the factory is so surreal.

That car is special. It’s tangible. It’s part of our movie history. It’s a part of our dreams.

the fact that fans restored it makes it so much more special.

I was sure in the right place at the right time, here,... working with Ron Cobb. Multi-blessings to be a part of Mo-Pic History- Thank you, Mr. Zemeckis & Mr. Gale,... AND Mr. Spielberg-

I have all the books, I’ve seen all the documentary’s, but this is by far the best. Thank you so much for this fabulous content. You’ve made this Back to the Future super fan very happy. So often these days, movie documentary’s are over edited and actually have no depth and detail, but not this one. ‘If you’re gonna make a documentary about the time machine built into a car, why not do it with some style’ 👌 Thank you thank you, excellent work 🙏👌👍

Damn you for making me cry... I am proud of being a part of the restoration that was crowdfunded..

This is THE car...the one that made me a "car guy". The one that got me interested in mechanical things. I will NEVER forget the first time I saw it.

That movie is a masterpiece. When we were shown that movie as kids all of us: cuties , jocks, nerds snotty kids, rich, poor, we were pulled into the story like in a vacuum and we stayed put in awe during all of the movie. I think it planted a seed in our heads us about the possibilities of life, what was happening around the world and being curious about stuff we didn't know. Doc Brown and Marty made a great team bouncing ideas. That's the kind of science I'd like to see more. That Delorean always looked like a flying saucer. Hey, We are all time travelers. The secret is that all our actions today influence the future. So be nice. If you don't believe in time travel, well try to learn what happens when you travel by boat around the world. Special thanks to everyone involved in the movie.

36:26 "Doc Brown doesn't drive a f**kin Mustang.... get outta here." total classic. this had me in stitches!! one of the best mic drop moments ever. the whole series was a large part of my childhood, as was Star Wars, Star Trek, Indiana Jones, Blade Runner, The Goonies, TRON, Terminator, etc. and accordingly, films left a lasting impression on me, to the point where I'd obsessively re-watch them. I'm not in America so I couldn't be one of "those" fans that gets out to every convention like a true fanboy, but the DMC-12 is still in my top 10 list of cars that I'd wanna have. thanks for making this very special doco, it's in my favourites.

I just watched Back to the Future with my 9 year old son just a few days ago. I was worried that he wouldn't understand what was going on or the references. 1985 is ancient history to him. He loved it, and we really enjoyed watching it together. The time machine was a huge part of the enjoyment. He could really connect with just how cool it looks, even to this day <3

Met John Delorean Several times. He had his office in one of Companies Business Associates office in Birmingham, Mich. Back before 1981. The car was underpowered but one of the coolest cars ever made. Just a memory now.

what an absolute gem of a documentary.

Back to the Future has been my favorite movie since I was a kid. Owning a DeLorean and driving it around to share with others has been as magical a memory as I can think of. Letting kids sit in the car while their parents take pics is something truly special. If you have one, share it with others. The 80's were great and I don't know any other car that can make people smile like a DeLorean. Thanks for sharing this wonderful movie. VIN#4885.

What stood out in this documentary the most is the prop artists willingness to share their delorean time machine and embrace copies of the car no matter how good or bad. I believe artists should be compensated for their work, and I understand how its "their baby" and could rightfully take offense at others copying their work and sharing it for profit or any reason at all - and even worse someone making a poor copy. I think its neat they allow others to make their own creation and how it imortalizes their work and makes others happy - and that they are ok with it.
