The world-famous Delorean Time Machine will be displayed at Segerstrom Center for the Arts for one day only, Friday, January 3, 2025! This is an experience for fans to enjoy during the Back to the Future The Musical tour. It’s arguably the most iconic car in movie history. But while the Back To The Future film’s legacy had thrived over the years — the car itself wasn’t so fortunate. Decades of harsh weather and souvenir hunters reduced this legendary movie car to a shadowy reflection of its former self. But with the help of the film’s executive producer and writer, Bob Gale, Terry Matalas led a group of dedicated fans to bring this cinema icon back to life.
The trilogy was made with two hero cars. First, there was what the production referred to as the “A-car” which thanks to the 2013 restoration now resides at the Petersen Museum. The second was known as the “B-car” which suffered at the end of the trilogy from a violent train crash. During the restoration, the B-car parts were recovered and put onto the car displayed at Segerstrom Center. This museum quality restoration has screen-used parts returned to their original time-traveling glory. The process has taken Matalas over a decade. He was only recently able to complete the extensive restoration thanks to his local friend and Segerstrom Center donor, Dave Tabb, who shared a love for the most iconic film vehicle of all time.
