  1. What a great time capsule! Thanks for the photos and please keep us posted. Eric
  2. How many volts show across the battery when you check it with a hand held voltmeter when the car is running? If only 11 volts, it is not charging and may be a bad alternator, or a possible loose or cut wire. Or a loose or corroded battery ground wire(s)
  3. Great event on a hot day! Good turn out of Lotus cars including a friend's freshly restored Elite. 3 Caterhams and an interesting driver in one.
  4. https://barnfinds.com/pocket-rocket-1971-austin-mini/?utm_campaign=Newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_source=Newsletter+(Daily) You should buy this Mini just to get the engine!
  5. Love the RHD! No burning legs on the exhaust, get to hear the Weber's induction sounds better, driver's footwell is nice and cool as the exhaust manifold is on the other side, and on trips to the UK I feel right at home when driving....
  6. No comparison, I will take the one on the right please! If I wanted 3 wheels I would buy a Morgan......
  7. More info here http://www.usa7s.net/vb/showthread.php?9372-Ebay-and-Craigslist-ads-Lots-of-Sevens-for-sale/page184
  8. I had a few parts leftover-had a good time putting it together!
  9. You should have bid again-sold for $7000..... https://www.ebay.com/itm/1966-Lotus-Super-Seven-/183557156412?nordt=true&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.m43663.l10137
  10. Early Land Rovers used a direct drive wiper motor-original Lucas ones are $$$$ but there are repro ones available from Series Land Rover vendors.
  11. Thanks for the photos Bob-so what was the total count of 7's there?
  12. This was a new location for the consolidation of 3 local British car shows. Around 300 British cars and more 7's I have seen in one place!
  13. "They shouldn’t be allowed to call them Caterhams" Or Lotus either!
  14. I wish he was my neighbor!
  15. Can you use a floor jack and jack stands on top of RaceDeck flooring?
  16. I've wondered what one of these would look like without those bumpers but with the Caterham headlights and signal lights!
  17. Morgan example
  18. Thanks for posting the corrected link! Interesting article, sounds like Caterham wants to develop an alloy bonded chassis similar to what a few other British cars use.
  19. link not working
  20. Your numbers are off-they built over 600 cars-more info here http://uk.caterhamcars.com/news/highest-annual-sales-20-years
  21. I hope you can find a replacement-how does this fasten to the T9 transmission? A snap ring? thanks, Eric
