Hi,
I am new to this site -thanks Geoff Stilwell- I have Bills old Elan .
It was sold to a Lady in north London and stored for about 25 years
Its pretty much as it was -only done 31k miles .
Has new chassis, different paint job[ Yellow] but apart from that its as it was in 1971 .
JAPearce alloys, Corbeau seats , BRM phase 111 engine .
Will be MOT'd in month or so .
Fitting solid driveshaft kit to replace the rubber doughnuts .

So should I restore her as she raced then ?? Rallyfleck Comanche is the plum/purple colour apparently.

Would be great to receive photos to assist with the restoration and does anyone have contact details for Bill ??

Any information gratefully appreciated.

Regards to all - Nigel
