The 1981 DeLorean DMC-12 is actually ideal for a carputer integration because it is a rear-engine car. This leaves the front compartment, or bonnet, pretty much empty. The bonnet is about a foot deep and four feet wide and 3 feet long. The bonnet door (some would call it a hood) is hinged at the front, like a perfectly flat “suicide-hood” - so when you open the hood and sit in the driver’s seat, the black-carpeted underside of the hood fills your field of view.
The black leather interior is very comfortable, and often at car shows I find myself chilling in the cockpit of my D, staring at that black carpet through the windshield, thinking, this - is where I want my desktop to be.
