This is my Lotus Europa Twin Cam Special painted with Tamiya Candy Lime Green and Tamiya Light Tan interior with a wired engine and built mostly box stock.
That's a beauty. I dig that candy lime green! Btw you put the steering wheel on the wrong side ;)
Thanks,
John
That's OK. I'd like to borrow the keys anyway.

I keep hitting "escape", but I'm still here.
I'd forgotten about that model Lotus. As always, you have done a stellar job and I also like the lime green.
Excellent build. The colors really pop. Who's kit is this?
Never seen that kit before. I like it!
Guy I worked with had a black one with the Cosworth DOHC four. Funny thing, he was about 6'-5".
Modeling is an excuse to buy books.
Very cool and well done. Another kit I want lol.

I really doesn't matter which side the steering wheel is on, just as long as you have fun with it!

Must be a Lotus thing! I. too, worked with a guy in 1973 who had one. He was ell over 6 feet ass well!
Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.
I guess a lot of tall people liked the little Europa...
To this day I still remember having a Matchbox of that very car in that very color - and that was close to 50 years ago.
If that Matchbox Lotus was like any of my Matchbox cars, then the paint was chipped and at least one wheel was bent!
I happen to come across the Fast Track video of the reissued Tamiya Lotus Europa and I knew about the reissue earlier this month. If you never saw the video, have a look at it here...

Mine was the original issue of the Lotus Europa Twin Cam Special.
Well done Mr. Mike!
Buddy- Those who say there are no stupid questions have never worked in customer service.
Thank you lewbud!
Oh My Gosh;
That is exactly the color of the one the owner didn't want back after a collision. So we sold it at Auction! I drove it for almost a year though. Decent Automobile!
I was trying to replicate the factory color and this one was close. Colin Chapman always said that lightness is speed!
