Zeingred Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 Hello, I'm Tyler from bend oregon. I own and am restoring a 61 lotus7. The car was my grandpa's and was parked in 1970 to never move again until I went and picked it up from socal last year. http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh217/zeingred/0725161807_zps1u1zrk4f.jpg http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh217/zeingred/IMG_20161217_194849_zpsfbuhziqh.jpg http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh217/zeingred/IMG_20160311_083624_zpsee7wwkjj.jpg
m wirth Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 Well Hello fellow Oregonian, you will really enjoy this forum, all the people are great at helping you enjoy even more the experience of owning a 7. I hope in the future to be able to acquire an original one from 1959 to 1965. The ice is just melting here but I don't think I will have mine out for at least another week. mike
xcarguy Posted January 9, 2017 Posted January 9, 2017 What a great story this is, and will be! Welcome aboard, Tyler. :cheers:
Zeingred Posted January 10, 2017 Author Posted January 10, 2017 Thanks, I'm been lusting after this car from a little 4year old boy, it was the only thing that I got from my grandpa's will, well the lotus and a 1929 Harley with a side car. This is a car that I will never get rid of and will pass on to my kids
rikker Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) Welcome great looking car its funny but the older I get the more I like leaving the body/outer look as it was and spending money making the car drive well .the patina is just wonderful. Polishing ally gets old too "black rags and fingernails" , wasn't that a Rod Stewart song? Edited January 13, 2017 by rikker
