Description
1960 Lotus 7 series 1 - 1460cc Coventry Climax Engined car.
This car has been a total labour of love and is as nice a series 1 as I have ever seen or driven. It has certain ‘upgrades’ which can be reversed of course, but was built to be useable, fast and safe. Running superbly and in amazing condition. Has all its documentation from the original log book to later log books to V5C - photos of its past incarnation in Europe when shipped there in 1978 ( then fitted with s2 wings.
It still has its European documentation.
Returning to the U. K. in 1989 where it remained untouched but in poor shape until totally restored over a long period; very sadly the gentleman the car was specifically built for, at huge expense passed away and I acquired the car with very low mileage. One of four 7’s of different series owned and cherished by me. Built at no expense spared.
I’m sure if you are wanting to buy a series 1 - which is of course is the ultimate Lotus 7 (especially with a Coventry Climax engine) then this is the car for you and I’m sure you will be in touch.
A few age related mark here and there from use recently. Not raced.
