Summary
This 1972 Lotus Elan Plus 2 S130, sold new in California, features a believed-rebuilt 1,558cc twin-cam four and 4-speed manual transmission, along with a Spydercars U-jointed rear axle conversion. An engine-out service six months ago included a new clutch and main seal, though the Cirrus White paint from the 1980s shows minor imperfections and the interior has a Momo steering wheel, missing front carpets, and some functional issues.

Brian_M PittsSpecial "LOTUS – loads of trouble, usually serious." Lots of cliches, usually tedious.
RPSA2 @tonyola, I couldn't agree more, I think it's the only case ever of the 2+2 being prettier than the two-seater.
