1969 Lotus Elan Type 45 S3 drop head coupe, 27, 000 miles, very complete, original, unmolested, unmodified restoration project. Lotus twin cam engine with Weber head and Weber carb setup. Engine turns over free (not frozen). Has the desirable oblong tail lights and period correct AM/FM radio. Dash veneer age cracking, seats very nice, retractable seat belts, nice large steering wheel. Last on road late 1980's. Previous owner then attempted a repaint by stripping paint on car, but never completed and went into storage. The only two things I see missing are one moulding lower sill and one amber marker light. Please look closely and study the pictures for details. Comes with spare wheel and jack. Has beauty rims/wheel embellishers and 3-ear K/O spinner hubs.
Please remember that this is an antique vehicle 47 years old. It needs total restoration and is consistent with a vehicle with this mileage, age and use. Car is available for pre-bid inspections and I would always encourage and welcome this. I am proud of my 100% excellent feedback score and always try to give accurate descriptions so that there are no disappointments. I am open and receptive to realistic offers. Vehicle is listed for sale by other venues and media, so I reserve the right to terminate the listing at any time.Those with less than ten (10) or negative feedback history do NOT bid unless you contact me and communicate first, otherwise your bids will be retracted and bidder banned from further bidding. The winning bid is NOT a right of first refusal, but a commitment to purchase the vehicle regardless of anything, so a non-refundable deposit via PayPal is required within 24 hours of auction ending and arrangements to be made for pickup of item.
NOTE: Will sell world-wide, but any and all shipping/transport arrangements to be made and paid for by winning bidder/buyer.
