The Vin Plate says the car was originally Colorado Orange. And they changed it to yellow

[BDA]

Wouldn’t that just make yours rarer?!

Thank God it is a TC and not a TCS. I feel a little better   BDA: You might like his one: https://www.mecum.com/lots/TJ0621-463282/1972-lotus-europa-special/

It's the right color but it's a little rough!

Sold for $18,500. Seems low for what it was.

[BDA]

Yeah, I expected a higher bid, too. There was no drive or start up video.  I would have thought the seller would have posted one. I don't think that made much difference though.

No video, not much enthusiasm from the seller.

Good point, JB! There was an exquisite just restored Elan that went for a BaT record price for Elans. The seller was very involved offering information, answering questions, chatting with viewers. His Elan was WAY better than this car so it was going to get a very good price anyway, but he did have a driving and startup and driving video and he was very engaged. I think that helps.
