 Knockoffs - made in China. They will do until I can find correct ones. |
Bits - Fender braces, breather, license plate lamp, and spacers for the transmission mount. |
 The distributor is a non-vacuum advance unit, and is marked 23D4 40953A -> 1066. The tag says "use solid core wire only." I'm not sure where this master cylinder came from, but there were also two correct 5/8" Girling master cylinders. |
 Fuel tank. Check out the brass tag. This is the early (small) tank and the frame is set up for the large, wide one. I may put in a fuel cell. |
 Radiator - looks to be in good shape. |
 Wing lamps. These look like they have been around the world a few times. |
 Steering rack. It's correct, but it wasn't in a Seven before - there are no limit stops. |
|
 Handbrake and accelerator pedal. |
 Sundry bits. The 2-into-1 exhaust is old, British, and definitely not from a Lotus. After shortening it at both ends, it fits. |
 Brake calipers and original front hubs. There are also alloy hubs that have the same bolt circle as the Ford rear axle and match the Lotus wheels. |
 All four shocks and springs are new. Adjustable Spax. |
