1975 Lotus Elite

Lotus Elite (1975)
for sale

Price: US $750.00

Description:

4 speed with overdrive, clear California title in my name. This car will need a total restoration, engine won't turn, but since it has been sitting for quite some time, the cylinders may just have to be bathed in oil to loosen them up. I have been contacted by a couple of Lotus enthusiasts who say they have wheels and other parts, the buyer of this vehicle will be given their phone numbers, but I cannot guarantee which parts they have or the condition of said parts. The Lotus is about 95% complete the spare tire is an original Lotus wheel if you know your way around cars and around lotuses this is a great project but this car is not running and will have to be totally gone through. This car is for a serious Lotus lover and hopefully be purchased by someone with a vision and deep pockets. REGARDING THE WHEELS, which all the inquiries have been about: the car has two rear Lotus wheels and a Lotus wheel spare, the funny wheels and tires which you see on the front of the car in the photos are the only other wheels which come with the car. The driver door latch will need repair as will the back hatch... There is no key. The front wheels will roll, but straight and the rear wheels do not roll, but multi-car hauler won't do the job. This vehicle is sold as is where is with no returns and no guarantees or warranties expressed or implied. It's sad that we are having more and more eBayers who have no intention of buying bidding on vehicles. If you're a serious bidder fine, if you're not... Please don't waste my time. New California plates and November 2016 tags included.
