Avery Waterman Posted June 19, 2008 Author Share Posted June 19, 2008 Today there is a 1976 Blakely with 12,000 miles for $12,000.00 "buy it now". Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banjo29 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 This one (Donkervoort?) is interesting, it is Honda S2000 powered, and has "world class" in the title, but's it's not an Ultralite and the body looks more like a Stalker than a WCM S2K... It's also listed in Parts > Wheels & Tires > Wheel Lugs , not exactly where I personally would list it... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Lotus-Super-Seven-2005-unique-world-class_W0QQitemZ330245996502QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item330245996502& Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandurath Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Of course I am kinda biased, as like the Red Baron (the seven I have on a pedestal), the above Blakely on ebay is powered by the same set up, which is also mine. Its performance is pretty impressive, its wet weight sans driver is 1650. Portly compared to some sevens but itis still pretty fast. Not to shabby for an old iron block Lima. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=002&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=120274580984&rd=1 (Read-Wife said No, and said it far less politely) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soareyes Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 IIRC, last time it was on ebay, top bid was about $75,000 and didn't meet the reserve. I sure it is worth every penny of $95,000 if you have that to spend on a Seven! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al N. Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 No seriously, can one of the wealthier guys from the forum just buy Sugino's car so we can make sure it stays in good hands? And make sure to buy the custom made transporter if it's still for sale. Maybe John V.'s boss could buy it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoPho Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 My Friend Gil took the studio shots of the car When Eric bought the car, he also had bought my friends incredible Cosworth powered Elan at the same time, so he showed up in Sugino's transporter to pick up the Elan. (to my disappointment he had left the Seven in AZ to pick up on the way back) The transporter is amazing too, it was so custom fit to the Seven that we had to let the air out of the tires in the Elan (which is tiny too) to get it in the truck and it still barely fit.

Sevnn Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Sugino's old Seven is back up for sale! Sugino's Seven on ebay If I was in the market for a 7 in that price range I'd be ALL over that. That is without a doubt the most impressive 7 I've ever seen. I'm sure they are very proud, as they should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avery Waterman Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 Sugino says $65K previously was paid for it on eBay and that there now is $100K in it. I do not doubt that, that is it "worth" $95K. But that is one hunk of cash, insurance and taxes for a Se7en, a Se7en that you probably would not want to drive very much at all because of its condition, looks and cost. In a way, it is too good for its own good. Sugino needs a museum or pure collector as purchaser, which may prove the proverbial "needle in a haystack" to find.
