:lol: Kinda like Popeye! Our cars have an additional brake function too .. aero-braking! Many years ago I was there checking out Fort Clatslop .. and then spent a nice evening overnight at Seaside. The Oregon coast is a very memorable drive. Rob -
That's why you really do need that trailer circuit to integrate the brake and turn signals ... Rob

Rotus Registry: What is your ROTUS VIN number?
solder_guy replied to solder_guy's topic in General Sevens Discussion
I received Rotus correspondence from Ian Crawford who bought Robert Urfer's Rotus this year off eBay. There is included a Rotus Registry dated 1994 which lists 23 cars and the owners. I will attempt to contact many of these Rotus owners and invite them to post here .. Rob -

Rotus Seven #14 Restoration Update
solder_guy replied to solder_guy's topic in General Sevens Discussion
Friday I glued new black vinyl fabric to the steel dash .. then cut out the holes .. and yesterday mounted my new dash to the car. Also installed my new horn pin setup in the dash .. looks and works great! Today I will reinstall all the gauges .. and relearn what all the wires are for? :willy: Plus wire in some new functions! :yesnod: Rob -
Yeah .. some people live near a community pool or elementary school .. and some people live beside Beach City Airport! Rob

We bought the two post HR8000 which fit the garage perfectly ... anchored in concrete. Yes .. their lifts are from China .. although the manufacturer is a US company. See this page for Lift Comparison Info. Also check out the Testimonials Page for more pics of people's garages. Rob

At the mechanic shop the Bendpak lift arms do not allow for a low clearance vehicle. We had to run the the Seven up on two thicknesses of plywood to allow for enough clearance to be lifted by it. The new two post lift has lower arms and several pairs of metal inserts for various auto clearances. Minimum clearance is 3 1/2" Check out: Greg Smith Equipment.com Of course all these lifts require a dedicated 220v service .. You cannot plug it into the back of the dryer 220v Rob

On second look .. the chin spoiler is not the same Rotus design .. and the shocks are not inside. Rob

Rotus Seven #14 Restoration Update

Thanks! I will have two gas caps: one for when the car is parked; and another with small holes to prevent a vacuum when the pump is drawing from it. Low tech but it will work. Rob
