Description Restored in the mid 80s the car is a very proper example of the Lotus Junior. Virtually all running gear is period correct and updates to comply with modern safety regulations are sympathetic to the car's original specificaiton. The car has been little used of late. This spring the engine was rebuilt and the car gone through. A new Tilton clutch was installed, masters and calipers rebuilt, new battery installed, new road springs fitted, and Dunlop Formula Ford tires mounted. The car competed successfully at the Florida races and is ready for a season with a new owner.
