I want to flip 'em so that they're like cattle loading ramps! Make 'em smooth enough and skateboarders can even use the ride as part of the course.
Would be much easier to engineer, at any rate! IIRC the hinge/strut system for the Delorean's doors was a real mess (like many things about that car)---the doors were always either hitting you in the head or impossible to close, never "just right" like Goldilocks' bed. I wonder if that problem has been solved since, what with all the gullwing conversion kits for Hondas and such. Alex Chamberlain '87 300D Turbo '93 Isuzu Trooper
