The 26th Annual Champagne British Car Festival is highlighting the DeLorean -- the car that was transformed into a time machine in Back to the Future.
- The Festival is Sunday, June 4 beginning at 9 a.m. at the David Davis Mansion in Bloomington.
- The DeLorean is noted for it's unusual winged door design, plus the fact that it was made from stainless steel.
- While the car is no longer manufactured, it lives on as the time machine created by Doc Brown in Back to the Future.
- There will be at least one DeLorean at the Festival that's been tricked out to resemble the car in the film.
- Other British cars will also be on display, including Jaguar, MG Bentley, Triumph and more.
- British food will be available on site. For those not fond of bangers and mash, there's also good old fashioned Yankee food.
Visitors can enjoy the the Mecum Auction’s “Mobile Experience” trailer, which will allow visitors to have their pictures taken as they appear to be auctioning off a show car.
