1970 Lotus Other

Coupe

1.6L 4 cylinder Renault

0385R

Clear

Project car. Currently a roller, very complete. Included are most parts necessary to finish and restore. You'll have to find rubber seals and small maintenance items (I have a covenient source) but I have all hard-to-find parts and they're included. Will need carpet, but the seats are excellent condition! Also included is an extra motor and transmission from a running & driving Europa built just 3 months before this one! That engine has been re-sealed with new gaskets and is ready to drop in. Boxes of other parts included - bumpers, radiator, coolant tank, twin (rare,OEM) fuel tanks, emblems and a new dash board! I do not wish to sell off parts separately - sorry, it's a package deal. Original, period-correct and very cool Cosmic wheels have been refinished and have NEW tires. All glass is good, need rear window seal - not installed. Original Owner's Manuals & Shop Service Manual included - in an original Lotus binder. Body is rough - will need striped, re-gel coated and re-painted. Frame appears to be solid, but I have not separated the body to see it all - engine comparment is very solid. Rare lower front air dam. Minor damage to passenger door handle, nose and below rear bumper. Headlights, turn lamps and tail lights are all good. Side turn indicators need replaced, but I have original parts & trim. See Pictures. Clear Title in my name. I'm happy to answer any questions. I've had this car for about 4years, collecting parts needed. Now, I've lost interest and have my eye on something else. If you know these cars, this is an excellent base project to start from and see finished. Rare seldom-seen car! Less than 9900 made in total - very few road-worthy. Get this one now, complete the project this winter and drive it this spring! I can store for you to pick up for a limited additional period after it's paid for. I will help with loading onto your trailer. Car is Sold As Is Where Is - No Warranty. Deposit required via PayPal or other means. Full Payment due within 5 days of auction end. Pick up is to be arranged, within a reasonable time.On Sep-25-13 at 09:56:26 PDT, seller added the following information: Read Carefully - not trying to hide anything, but please ask if I've left anything out you're especially wondering about.

There is some surface rust, but it appears solid.
