This is one of the sweetest running twin cam’s I have ever been involved with.
Currently this car has full harness (out of date) belts.
The rear has been fully fire walled so that I could sprint it (I haven’t ever competed the car)
The interior is not to standard specification but is close, including a new dash, original seats and original Chapman signed wheel, refurbished by Len Chandler.
This car is a real sleeper (as much as a gold lead sports car can be!) It looks very much like a standard Elan Sprint, handles sharper and goes quicker, but cruises better. I haven’t had it on a rolling road, both Torque & HP are significantly increased.
