Lightguy Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 19 hours ago, Bruce K said: From Croc's list, I reached out to the owner of the 2009 R400 Superlight. We worked out the details, and Miles sold me his work of art. I am unsure as to whether I should buy plate and tabs, or drain the fluids and mount it on my family room wall. The volume of details, the purpose in every curve, the finish on every surface is spectacular. With so many square feet of carbon fiber and aluminum, the car feels light as a shadow. Everything I loved about Super Sevens is coming back in waves: Boat-anchor brakes; Thought-mediated steering; Booster-rocket mid-range; And everywhere around you, glorious scintillas of sun sun sun. It's compact, with that wondrous factory six-speed, so I'm retraining my size 10's in the five basic foot positions of Caterham ballet. Miles and his lovely wife De Ann were awesome, and I thank them again. Miles was a devoted caretaker and developer of this car. Now it's my turn! Here's a few images of the new car: Yeah I saw that car listed and for a fairly good price too ! One sexy looking machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Croc Posted October 9, 2021 Author Share Posted October 9, 2021 I had some reservations posting this ad this morning. It has a PA title but nothing on the chassis that corresponds to the title. There is a stamp on the chassis (photo 86) but who knows what that says. Despite the video stating a VIN plate on the bulkhead, the photos and video never actually show it. There is no Arch Motors stamp where you might expect one. The chassis itself looks somewhat newer than an original 1962 S2 - some of the bracing is not quite the same - looks closer to an S3 chassis. Its certainly not a new reproduction chassis but no way of identifying pedigree. The fact that there is a duplicate SB1357 out there in the UK with a reproduction chassis does not surprise me. So many were cloned by a few unscrupulous/notorious dealers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpslotus Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) I sent an email last night to the Seven Registry and got a response back concerning the SB1357 that Croc is discussing above. I will admit the lack of either plate and a frame that has been "modified" had me wondering. My intuition was confirmed..

SENC Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) I would not be surprised if this is the original chassis, but it has definitely been modified and strengthened. Without the plate and history, which the seller admits to not having, it could never be validated as an original Lotus. There are plenty of other indicators it is a collection of parts (dash and gauges are incorrect - the presence of the 2:1 manifold and carb make me suspect the dual webers and manifolds are aftermarket - and I think the correct bellhousing would have been the unribbed variety), but it could make a heckuva fun "bitsa" Seven. Lots of work to be done, though, and could alternatively be a nice parts buy - much of what is included are getting very hard to find. The original tank, radiator, front suspension, and rear axle have some value, as do the block and gearbox. Edited October 9, 2021 by SENC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
