Getting closer to a purchase. More questions.
S1Steve replied to Saudio's topic in General Sevens Discussion
Congratulations on your Seven, if you’re on Facebook, there’s a Caterham 620 Owner site that has discussions on 620’s from guys that have been there fixed that. Including the cooling issues. It’s a really interesting , knowledgeable group. Enjoy.. -
Gentlemen, I’m thinking about getting an extra set of 15” wheels for my S1. What is holding me up is the specs . I had all the information at one time , now of course I can find it. Looking for backspace, offset … Thanks in advance.. Steve

Is this homemade looking hose for the factory FI that came on the SVT engine. Or is it from a aftermarket system. Ether way it looks like it would be simple to replicate by someone that builds hydraulic hoses. Be sure to use fuel injection hose, not carburetor hose.. Hope this helps..

Replacing entire front end of Caterham and need some guidance
S1Steve replied to Jonathan Cort's topic in Build Threads
I’d like to see a few photos of your new front frame you bought from Caterham.. Good luck with your replacement.. -
I thought I had the S1 packed away till spring. Really tired of seeing it undercover in the garage. So out it came for a 50 mile loop in 45 degrees in January.. Sounds like the next machine coming out may be the snowblower next week….

The Regular Summary of Classified Ads of Se7ens Found For Sale
S1Steve replied to Croc's topic in Cars For Sale
I’m not an expert on Lotus chassis tags and what’s original or not. But I do know with what looks like serious front right chassis and pickup point problems. You have to ask yourself if you’re up for serious fabrication. Then I wonder how my brazing skills are, I would answer “ They Stink”..😂😂 -
My daily driver. Chevy Silverado 1500, hauls dogs , firewood , mulch. It’s 6 years old now with 32k. Half of those miles are going to and from Philadelphia to Hilton Head South Carolina. I bought it with V6 for it’s power to mileage ratio. 27 MPG if I drive it decent… And it pulls the S1 and trailer with no sweat…

It’s a slip joint with scalloped ends to prevent shear… There’s also protective film that is 20 years old and cracking… -
Well my Italian Heritage came poring out when I drove it. Your pictures don’t do it justice, it’s in top form. When the Espada comes home, that will probably be my new favorite.. Enjoy your Christmas down South.. Cheers Steve…

Speedwagon and Others, Finally packing my Superformance S1 away for the winter. So I see we’re talking radiator’s, I went to the S1 drawer and found a parts list send to me 20 years ago by the selling dealer, when Superformance actually cared about the S1 and their owners.. maybe this info will help..

That was a PALS event. We were headed home and I went a different route . I told Jon not to turn off the Launch Control. Thank God that wasn’t in his Caterham…🤦🏼♂️😂😂

Hi Charlie, I have a Superformance S1 you can come inspect. It’s a little bigger than a Caterham SV,” I’ve driven a few SV’s and fit fine.I’m in Ambler , Montgomery County, half hour from you. Let me know if you’re up for it. I’m retired so I have plenty of free time.. Steve

Hi John, Ten plus years ago I purchased a new in the box R500 muffler from the Caterham dealer in Canada . I also purchased a Caterham Zetec header from our member Skip Scannon. 2.50 x 31” long. So now this makes me a minority owner of a Caterham.. Seriously, hope this helps.. Steve🍻

Swap to independent rear suspension on a Stalker?
S1Steve replied to rdymond's topic in General Sevens Discussion
That’s a question that would make me call the manufacturer down in Florida . I think they would give the best engineering advice. Good Luck -
