1993 de Dion Caterham with 1700cc 711M Kent crossflow
Second owner, original parts list, Caterhan assembly manual, and build documnetation will be included. Many spares included and the original owner did many little tricks during assembly. The original owner built this to keep and to never sell, expert workmanship makes this car an absolute joy to drive. I've driven the car approximately 1200 miles since purchasing 3 years ago, always garaged. I'm selling to purchase a Formula car as my "jones" of racing continues.
FIA cage installed with side crash bars, new wind deflectors. Currently I have a new Caterham black bench seat and cushions installed for more leg room, Corbeau 5 point drivers side belt installed, original Luke harnesses still with the car. Halogen bulbs with individual relay circuits. Side crash bars. Removable steering wheel. Currently on the car are K&N style wheels with new (500 miles) Yokohama Advan 032R's

Custom battery tray installed on top of heater for 2 dry cell Odessey type batteries. Currently I only have 1 brand new Odessey installed but have the custom battery cables to hook up two should you desire (was that way when I purchased it).
