Lotus 49 clone? on ebay, not to much interest

garyeander...@yahoo.com (Gary Anderson) — Sat, 05 Jul 2008 14:52:17 UT

I saw this on ebay, not sure folks know about it ot not. Sounds like a project with a lot of ifs to be the big money that Gordy Good is looking for...
I an not sure it belongs on this group or not but it is an interesting project none the less.

Crossflow Inlet Manifold for a Seven

nathancro...@gmail.com (nathan) — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 18:41:39 UT

Hi,
I am looking for a dual weber dcoe 40 intake manifold for my Lotus 7
series 4. Apparently there is a long version and a short version. I
bought a redline part that the runners are long and offset (3 3/4") ,
the hood hits the front carb. Does anyone know where I can find a
short one?

Hi Peter, I bought some 11 parts from a fellow in New York. He had a
couple of sets of blue prints for the series 1 DeDions. I can call him
and see if he has any copies. My car is a series one and I will
measure it for you. Just give me a day or two to get to it. Regards,
Bob

Quality of body work

rwrichards...@comcast.net (Bob) — Wed, 28 May 2008 22:48:25 UT

Hello all,
In the restoration of my car, I have discovered that at some point
the rear body work was replaced. When I stripped the paint on the car,
the rear section was originally painted a light yellow with no primer.
There was no Bondo under this yellow. On top of this yellow there were
