Title: S1 on Copart in SanBernardino CA
Post by: JasonH on Tuesday,January 15, 2019, 02:36:03 PM

I happened to be looking for other cars on Copart and Decided to punch in "Lotus"  1960-2005 just to see what would come up.  Wonder where this jewel came from?

Anyone in the Area that could have a look?  BIN at $1450  By the looks of the corrosion on the wheels the chassis might need to come out  :( 

I would love to get my hands on this, but I just don't have the time and it is out of my neighborhood

Geeze.  I guess I just needed to look down a bit  ::)

Wonder what happens to it if there are no bids by the sell by date?  Just punched in the numbers to see how much the fees were to buy at auction.  >:(
I can't believe how much the auction houses charge to sell a vehicle.  For the BIN price you pay the same in fees!  Real turn off.
Don't need another project!  But an S1 shell would be nice for my chassis.

Thanks

That's got a health warning on it because it has been flooded... unknown chemical and waste contamination...
