Being a Lotus novice, and having bought a restored car, I wonder what it is that I have bought. My driveshafts does not look original, can anyone tell me, what they are?

Looks to me like "Performance Unlimited" sliding spline with U/J's at each end (like mine)

Oh yes,you might want to consider fitting "boots" over the sliding splines and U/J's to protect from road crap/rust...
