    Description

    Selling a rare LHD Lotus Eclat
    Only a few remaining on the planet.
    Due to the colors, this one is a perfect candidate for a "John Player Special" tribute. Fun fact, Vin starts with '77, and Andretti won the GP with Lotus JPS nr 77
    VIN: 77/110328E
    Original engine and transmission in good condition.
    Running engine but the fuelpump fails and ofcourse needs carb. ajustment.
    Body in straight condition, no damage on the fiberglass.
    Original sparewheel as new
    I bought it with a set of Gotti rims on it (see last picture), they can be sold with the car for 0 extra
    Rust on the flat part of the doorhinge and oil cooler/steering rack support, Frame itself is rocksolid.
    Headlights don't pop
    Interior needs reupholstery
    Overal a nice easy fix project for coming winter.
    The car comes with a pink slip from the first owner (a doctor) in California.
    I shipped it 3y ago but didn't register it here in Belgium, as i wont be working on it for the next year i decided to put it on the market.
    As it is still on US title i assume there will be no import taxes to be paid at re-entry in the USA
    Apparently restored Eclats are being sold in the US for over 25k (seen on B ring A Trail R)
    My loss is your gain!
    The car is located in Belgium (Flanders region), and will be shipped to any harbor in the US. Shipping quoted between 2500 and 3500 in a container.
    I will bring the car in person to the shipper.
    I can assist with shipping/ delivery at your place.
    Payment with Bank wire or Paypal
    If you want it, hit "Buy it now" and we'll negotiate on the shipping price... (Again, my loss is your gain).
    If you need any more info, don't hesitate to ask.
    Merry Christmas!
