Summary
This 1960 Lotus 18, one of approximately 120 produced for the US Formula Junior series, is Lotus' first mid-engine race car, powered by a Ford 105E 1,100cc engine with dual Weber carburetors and a 4-speed Hewland transaxle. Professionally restored in the 1990s with a new frame (original included), it features a Halon fire suppression system, modern Accusump, and comes with extensive spares including the original Renault transaxle. The car was recently raced in 2016 and received a light service last year.
