1967 LOTUS ELAN S3 FHC - £35,000
Amazing standard 1967 Lotus Elan S3 (original chassis) with interesting history and low mileage. The previous owner fully restored the car in 1989, this included body off restoration and engine rebuild. Photographic record of this and various invoices (lots of paperwork) included. The car then had very little use and the last MoT is from August 1990 and it shows a mileage of 6049 miles. The car was dry stored until I purchased the car in June 2019 showing only 6400 miles. Over the following 3 years I have restored the car and is now a very useable Elan (now showing 6628 miles and counting). Recent parts invoices for £5000 plus covering: complete suspension rebuild including Tony Thompson Koni dampers/springs, new rear wishbones, fully powder coated suspension, full Nylon bush set, all new wheel bearings (front and rear), suspension joints/bolts, new driveshaft donuts/bolts, brake calipers (front/rear) and Girling Servo re-furbished by Classiccar Automotive (Cheshire), new braided brakes lines, new brake discs/pads, re-furbished wheels, new Dunlop 155/80/R13 tyres, engine service including rebuilt Weber carburettors, new fuel pump/fuel lines and aluminium fuel tank, new Kelvedon Dynamo, starter motor/hoses/belts and replaced diff seals. I have also rebuilt the vacuum pop-up headlight mechanisms and fitted new headlights. I purchased most of the parts from Sue Miller. The car then spent a morning at Northampton Motorsport Rolling Road having the carburettors and ignition timing set, the car runs well. I also corner-weighted and set the suspension up on a flat patch. I am only selling the car due to due to a lack of time to use it (extensive overseas travel with work).
