for sale

Price: US $4,650.00

Description:

Hello to all Ebayers!
I have been with EBay for several years and I want to keep my reputation with EBay at 100%.
I bought this vehicle with the intention of bringing it to California to add to my collection but I bought a Porsche and this car became available. I have the actual title from the original owner that will be mailed over night to the new buyer.
This Lotus Elite is located in a Copart facility in Tucson, AZ. I tried to sell it on Copart but this vehicle is a classic clean vehicle and they have a salvage yard so it's not the best place to sell this vehicle there. You can purchase the vehicle through Ebay or you can purchase it through Copart by becoming a member.
PRICED TO SELL !!!
Here is the description I have from the previous owner:
“For sale is a RARE 1974 Lotus Elite with low miles, around 34k original miles. Car was garage kept and only 3 owners. The original Lotus 907 engine runs good and the car drives. I put new calipers in the front so it does have some braking ability. The clutch shifts smoothly. It has clear title. The car is basically sound but remember old cars need TLC and maintenance. This car is a little dirty. With a little clean up and touch up this car looks amazing.
The interior is very clean, all seats (front and back) are newly upholstered and the dashboard is in excellent shape wit all gauges intact and clean. The car is equipped with power windows and a power antenna, all which work fine; also it has a Blaupunkt stereo with cassette player, stainless steel dual mufflers and alloy wheels. It comes with original Lotus shop manual. The German made Fulda radials have a near new tread. The car is fitted well with the gas sipping Zenith-Stromberg dual carburetor which gives it 25 to 27 mpg, amazing for this type of car.
All in all this is a very nice example of these unusual eye catching cars.”
This car is a little dirty. With a little clean up and touch up this car looks amazing.

General Information:
People have different opinions and expectations of old cars. It is your responsibility to inspect the vehicle or send a third party inspector for your satisfaction. Remember this is a 42 year old vehicle and can have some imperfections. I had a bad experience with a ruthless dealer that wanted to buy a classic from me and triple the price the next day! If you are buying and paying for this vehicle you will need to give me a positive feedback before this vehicle is picked up!
This is your chance to own this great classic.
