Lotus Europa Forums > FS / WTB: Cars and Rollers
Project wanted!

Hi
I am in the UK and after a Europa Twincam project. I do know about 70's Lotuses so am not a virgin in that respect, but have never even sat in a Europa.
I do know I am not a fan of the earlier "breadvan" cars, but never say never.
Price (value) is very important. I know I will never get my money back, but it needs to be at a certain level to get buy in from the wife. I am exiting a Porsche Boxster and ugly +2 project to make the man (and in this case woman) math work.
I am prepared to import the right car (hello America), and will consider cars without engines. The car does not have to be "original" but if it is then I would keep it that way.
I do not expect to get many replies to this, but do not ask, do not get as they say.
All the best!
Berni

Where about in the UK are you?

If you find something for sale privately, I would ask if a member on here could take a look in person. I would be willing to drive in Az to help. FWIW, I saw many pics of the one I got before driving 1,500 mile round trip. The price was right but not what the pics made it seem to be. I still got it but if it was more I would have walked away.

Hello
I am in Beckenham Kent, but do drive around.
Wow a 1500 mile round trip! That is amazing. More than about 150 miles and I am starting to wilt! Good suggestion about enlisting the help of a forum member. Happy to cover expenses + beer money!
Tks again

It was brutal with no sleep. Left Friday after work, got home at 3am Sunday. Slow going on a tow dolly that had all the issues but I wanted a type 54 project and searched the West of the US for a year. I used a Craigslist search engine to search states I selected, checked everyday. California, Nevada, Arizona would be the best options.
