I purchased this car 4 years ago damaged. It was hit in the right
rear corner. Not crunched, just some cracks in the fiberglass. I repaired the
fiberglass and chose to repaint the entire car. I felt that black didn’t suite
the cars body lines, so I changed the color to Lotus Silver/Blue, code B110 and
go with a blue/black color scheme. The rear bumper cover and front air dam are
also new. While I had the car apart, I also performed an engine out service and
replaced all of the components that could go wrong. The following parts are
new: blue gates timing belts and pulleys, serpentine belt, alternator, crank
and cam sensors, maps sensor, throttle position sensor, idle valve, coils,
spark plug wires, spark plugs, all 32 cam followers, fuel pumps and submersible
hose, fuel filter, O2 sensors, catalytic converters, fly wheel and clutch,
seals and gaskets. I removed the heads and had them cleaned, pressure checked,
planed and polished, replace the head gaskets with OEM and replaced the head
bolts with ARP studs. I sent the engine hardware out to be replated in cadmium.
The valve covers and intake have been re-powder coated in red. I also resealed the transmission and replaced
the axle shafts. The pop up headlight motors have also been rebuilt. I also
replace the door panel inserts with blue tartan to brighten up the interior.
The car comes with 2 mufflers, the “sport muffler” which is basically straight
pipes and, in my opinion, makes the car sound fantastic, and the neighborhood friendly
custom glass pack muffler that is currently on the car. The car also has a new
Triplex windshield. The car starts, runs, drives and looks great. I’ve put 1500
miles on the car to workout any bugs. The only thing that doesn’t work is the security
system. I purchased new key and lock set, new fobs and security dongle, but
haven’t found anyone local who could program it, so you have to use the key to
lock/unlock the door. I still have all of the parts that I removed from the car
and will go with the sale. Let me know if you have any questions.
