Lotus 15 1958reproduction project
Lotus 15 series one project,
tubular frame chassis is as near as you can get to the original car, all fusion
welded, the chassis was all jig made. Front suspension is all complete, I was
going to use either a rear live axle as per the Dizzy Addicott car or the
independent Lotus set up. There is included a Lotus MK 14 elite alloy diff
housing which needs machining. The engine bay is as original so a climax engine
could be used or with a bit of tube juggling you could use a Buick or Rover V8
which most prob was the eventual route I was going to take. The body is an
exact copy of an original car we think its most probably been molded off one
off one of the team cars looks very similar to the Hill car. There is even the
rivets molded into the scuttle panel and weld marks on the underside of the rear
panel. This would make a very interesting project for someone and you would end
up with a very presentable car unlike some restored original cars who’s body
shape is not correct. There are a number of wooden former"s and interior alloy
panels included, the sill bulkhead panels are the correct shape so outer sills
will look correct.
This is as near as you
can get to the original car.
If you have any
question or need any more photos please ask, only reason for sale is I have to
many projects on the go.
Please look at my other
project Lotus MK6 which would make an extremely nice FIA spec car with Morris
engine/gear box included.
Any reasnoble offer excepted
Thanks for
looking.
Will export worldwide
