lotus excel project running restoration 2.2 eclat

Description:

I HAVE FOR SALE MY LOTUS EXCEL 1984 WITH ONLY 66K ON THE CLOCK. BELIEVED CORRECT. I PURCHASED THIS CAR WITH THE INTENTION OF PUTTING ON THE ROAD BUT SOMETHING ELSE HAS NOW COME UP.
THE LAST OWNER HAD DONE SOME WORK ON IT THE CAR APPEARS TO HAVE A STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST AND THE SHOCKS LOOK TO HAVE BEEN REFURBED.

THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING. THIS WAS DUE TO A FUEL PUMP PROBLEM. WE REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP WITH AN UPMARKET FACET POINTLESS PUMP OF THE RIGHT PRESSURE REPLACED THE PLUG LEADS, NEW CAP, PLUGS ETC AND THE CAR IS NOW RUNNING. NO SMOKE OR RATTLES THE ENGINE IS GOOD. THERE IS A BLOW OUT AT THE MANIFOLD SO ITS LOUD. THE DOOR FRAMES WERE GONE SO I SOURCED TWO GOOD RED DOORS WITH GOOD FRAMES. THE HANDLES AND WIRING ETC ALL NEEDS SORTING. BOTH DOORS NOW FITTED.
THE SLAVE CYLINDER FOR THE CLUTCH IS SEIZED SO CANT BE DRIVEN. THE ALLOYS ALL FIVE ARE GOOD. THE TYRES ARE NO LONGER ANY GOOD.

THE SEATS AS YOU SEE ARE GOOD. HEADLINING AND TRIM NEED SORTING.

I HAVE TRIED TO BE AS HONEST AS I CAN. I WANT TO PAINT A PICTURE SO ANY BUYER KNOWS THE SCORE. SPARES REPAIR PROJECT

THE CAR IS SOLD FOR SPARES OR REPAIR OR PROJECT AND IS WELL WORTH SORTING. IN ANY EVENT THERE IS A GOOD ENGINE COMPLETE WITH TWIN DELLORTO CARBS WHICH IS WORTH QUITE A BIT.
I HAVE APPLIED FOR THE V5 . IT HAS NOT ARRIVED AS YET BUT I WILL PROVIDE FULL RECEIPT WITH CHASSIS NUMBER ETC.

ANY QUESTION YOU CAN ASK BUT I DONT THINK I CAN ADD MUCH MORE.
THE CAR IS IN NORTHERN IRELAND SO YOU WILL HAVE TO ARRANGE COLLECTION. I CAN TAKE IT TO THE FERRY IN BELFAST IF IT HELPS BUT REMEMBER IT STARTS BUT NO DRIVE DUE TO CLUTCH SLAVE. I CAN GET YOU A PRICE FOR DELIVERY TO YOU IN MAINLAND IF YOU WISH.
AT CLOSE OF AUCTION I WILL NEED A DEPOSIT NONE RETURNABLE OF £200 NO EXCEPTIONS. I NEED TO KNOW THAT THE BUYER IS SERIOUS. BALANCE BY CASH OR BACS.

VIEWING IS NOT A PROBLEM.
