A friend of mine was given a box of old toy cars recently, and he found this gem. The 'Super X' made in 1983 is obviously Delorean inspired, right down to details such as the gull wing doors and the six exhaust manifold pipes underneath (I think this model may have been rebadged as Turismo later).
The accident damage rotates over to reveal an undamaged section and the 'bonnet' pulls forward from under the winscreen to complete the transformation.I believe there was another model car that had damage to the door area, and that rotated to reveal an undamaged door, unfortunately the bonnet on this car no longer works but is still mobile after nearly 30 years (sound like my DMC). The six ram pipes for the carburation (ahem!) sticking through the rear deck lid is interesting! 8)
But they got the wheel and tyre size right for once! 8)
