Ferrari Mailing List: Re: OT: Lotus Elan

Great cars, you can get everything in the UK. Even a new chassis if required. 
Contact Paul Matty Lotus in Bromsgrove for parts.  I use to live near them. 
Electrics are fine once you sort out the grounding. Fibreglass May need repairs 
but it’s all been done many many times so lots of info and help.

BR in Stockholm.
