Lotus Elan and Lotus Elan Plus 2 Forums

My new bonnet/engine cover is 69" long
did I do something wrong?



& or

overall 20', I can fit my +2 and S4 in a 20' trailer, or Elise and S4.

I got to thinking, as Colin enjoyed his Galaxy, this is only another 300lbs and Ford used the engine till 1998. I figure a Ford modular 5-6 cyl, though there is lots of modern EFi bits for the 460 (comments please). Also, it is rust free, and was free, or no-$.



anyone else hate, or have a hate-on for large American iron?

Nothing wrong with US iron or muscle. Sure they do not hug the road like an Elan, but they are not meant to!

Both Chapman and Jim Clark had Galaxies...

You have though made the cardinal of all sins in the classic Ford world by referring to a proper Galaxie as a Galaxy, a name given to the modern characterless mumsie-wagon...

ha, shows you how much I know or care about the USA autos

Looks like a fun project!

As an American, I can say it is not a chick magnet.

Yes the headline for this post is certainly correct. It’s definitely “not sexual”

It might be a 6……………….…………9 but never a 69!

Might have been back in the disco-era though!

Modern pimps still approve, ask how i know and why? Lol

I wonder if it has 'Corinthian Leather'
