Nobody ever got cold in a Lotus Seven

[jbcollier]

Lotus Sevens have exposed pedals.  Kind of cool to look at but the engine compartment air flows in quite fiercely.  The PO had tried to seal things off with stick-on, firewall insulation.  As the pedals move back and forth through slots in the insulation, it wasn’t very effective.  
 

I removed the insulation and made up a surround and cover for the pedal area.  Worked really well: the Scirocco abated and the driver much cooler. The tunnel and exhaust sides still get warm but the hair dryer effect is gone.
