Those S2s were a tough sell compared to newly introduced TC. I'm sure more than a few sat on the lot for six months or more and titled as 1973s.

Located in Milton, Delaware. And agreed, much love needed to put this one right. A seller without answers to the many questions, and probably lots of small bits missing. The engine is an unknown, and a dire looking one at that. Nonetheless, if the price is right, it's a project for the right person.

In some ways more complete than my own car.
The Alfa engine is an interesting choice although getting to the front for service is going to be a PITA.
It's mechanically fuel injected with a SPICA system so no pesky computer required.
1750 or 2000 cc Alfa engine will move the Lotus very well.
But if I had this car I would put a Renault back into it.
