I promise to give it a good home, worked with a community member here to save / get an Elan back on the road.

Hey Tom, no more projects? That Elan must have wiped you out  :)

The Elan is in use! So I suppose that means it’s time for another Lotus right?

Hope you are doing well.

there ought to be a 12-step program for Lotus afficionados.  We can not seem to ever stop with just one....or 5.

Looking to pick up a couple parts-quality TCs along the way.  Want to get a spare frame and suspension kit on the shelf Just In Case.  And motor bits might be good...and, oh, by the way, would really really love to find a 70s Elite....had one back in the day and it was just a sweet 4-seater...sold it to finance my first airplane.  It never ends, does it?

I feel as though I am cursed to live a life that has been decided for me by fate.

To the OP, a couple of likely candidates for sale on No. Cal. Facebook.
I posted links here on the forum.
