newbie with plus 2 to restore
Posted: Mon Jun 16, 2014 10:28 pm
hi everyone,rejoining the ranks of lotus ownership,and bought the plus 2 that niagra was selling.I had a lovely red plus 2 years ago that i should never have sold.I had a" baby" elan which i loved, but i am really happy to now have a plus 2 (the good looking/handling elan ).I really enjoy reading the posts and appreciate the great advice and hope to be able to drive you all mad with stupid and innane questions,(apologies in advance).
I hope to re-do the car in carnival red with black interior so will probably see if anyone wants an oatmeal interior for black interior swap.
The only major item missing is the cylinder head so if anyone has or knows of one for sale in decent nick,i would be most grateful.
I also have an old sunroof that needs o/haul,replace or imay try and re-instate roof.
Other than that it all looks like needing a complete overhaul,i would love to know what you have done in regard to front and rear shocks ie.standard/upgrade/adj.spring height platforms etc.
I will post some pics as i go,
many thanks
Paul
