| I am the 2nd owner of this very fine Lotus Europa special. I have owned this car since 1977. A show quality restored example, placed and winner in various catagories including best import 1900 thru present in recent WI state competitions. It has 34176 original documented miles, is meticulously maintained. always garaged with no offseason use.I have all receipts from restoration and 32 years of ownership.I will try to answer all inquires to this listing but please read the entire add before asking. The body has no stress cracks and has recently been stripped of all old paint and repainted with Imron black with gold pinstripe. The finish is hand buffed to such a brilliant shine that you could use it as a mirror to shave you face with or you gals could use it to put your make up on with. The interior seats and panels are darn near perfect original condition with no tears or splitting seams scuffs or marks. They are the original Champagne that were optional only in the special editon Europa. The carpet is new top shelf Milleken matching Champagne and is perimeter bound. The dash cover is new with a french stiched front edge and the dash facia is new heavier gauge teakwood with an imron clear coat.The car comes with the original steering wheel not the aftermarket unit that is in some of the pictures. The wheels were completly stripped and repainted with dark pepper metalic imron and imron clear coated.Now for the mechanical summary: ENGINE: Block rebored with new .020 pistons and rings : CRANK: turned polished and balanced with .010 main and rod bearings. new thrust bearing, new bolts new oil pump with 100 psi uprate kit, new water pump.

I do have the vehicle advertised locally and reserve the right to end this auction at any time.Shipping costs and arrangement is the sole responsibility of the buyer but i would gladly assist the buyer as needed. AS far as any international bidders i am in close proximity to the great lakes and shipping may not be all that costly as compared to other locations.Also i am about 20 minutes from the local Airport and would gladly arrange for pick up you would want to drive the vehicle home yourself. A down payment of $1000 is required within 48 hours of the end of the auction and full payment within 7 days.
