Hi Everyone,
Well, slowly building on bits for the car.
I now have.....
Steering column (Few bits to add too still)
Body outer vents
Hand brake
Hand brake cable
Hand brake actuating rods
Steering column (Few bits to add still)
2 x Chrome door frames (Coming soon)
2 x Window motors (Coming soon)
4 speed Lotus Elan Gearbox (Coming soon)
Started restoring and will be painting up new etc.
Along long way to go yet obviously, but hey a very good start!
Dave.

Hi
Thats certainly a start. I guess by doing it this way you can more easily deal with and restore (where necessary) each part as it comes in. I just have seemingly endless boxes of parts.
You have the body and chassis already yes?
All the best

Zetec+ 2 under const, also 130S. And another 130S for complete restoration. Previously Racing green +2s with green tints. Yellow +2 and a couple of others, all missed. Great to be back 04/11/2021 although its all starting to get a bit out of control.
