"This custom vehicle is based on the design of a Universal Hovercraft UH-13PT and was built by the seller to resemble the flying DeLorean DMC-12 used in Back to the Future II. The seller began construction 11 years ago, and completed it in 2012.

The vehicle is equipped with a custom hover skirt and a single-cylinder Briggs and Stratton engine powering a 24″ lift fan, as well as a 627cc two-cylinder Briggs and Stratton engine at the rear providing thrust via a 36″ fan.

This DeLorean-style hovercraft is offered with a matching trailer..."
