Lotus Super 7 Series 2

Tamaya kit (This thing is small.  More like working on a 1:32) This car fought me all the way but I managed to whoop it's butt.  Wired and plumbed as much as I could.  Scratch built the dash, clutch linkage, throttle cable, and battery details.  Refinished in BASF lacquers British racing green with DuPont urethane clear coat.

Looks very nice!  The wiring and plumbing are great.  Paint job is great, too.

Always loved the Super 7. Ever since I was thin enough to actually get in one!! Wink

The real ones weren't a lot bigger than the kit!

So long folks!

Great work there! The engine bay looks a bit plain as far as color goes(Maybe that's because I build armor...) , but the wiring is just SUPERB!!!!! I love the work you put into this, scratchbuilding is always welcome in my book!

The engine bays of most  7's look that way.  They are the ultimate in simplicity.

Ok, I'm no expert, the closest thing to a lotus we is my dad's 67 bug! So yeah... I'm no expert.
