Re: Help with Ball joints and inner tie rods

It's highly likely that all the bushes are the same age so I would just replace all of them, you'll have peace of mind knowing you don't need to worry again. :)

Good looking car. The interior looks really well kept. I bet it's a nice place to be. :)

Qwertyco, I sent you a PM about where you obtained the catches. I need a couple for my Elite restoration. :)

Re: Clunk no click

I'd be very suspicious of cheap stock from China. I would want correctly type approved fixings.

Hope you find something suitable. :)

Re: excel A 227 GFA

There is value in the book. I've seen other Lotus ones for sale for £100. I'm not sure if these are obsolete now. :)

Re: Save This Elite !

Looks like a fantastic project. I wish I had the space but with an Esprit and an Elite awaiting serious attention, it's not going to happen. :)

Re: Blue

What colour did you ask them to paint it?

A quick google search reveals Z11 is a light blue Lotus colour from 1982.
I think the 'Z' may represent a paint manufacturers paint type.
