Beautiful 1969 S2

They say it is a Type 65 but the front bumper height looks like a Fed Type 54.  Either way looks like a nice restoration.

It has a 65 serial number.

I found the car on the Lotus Europa S2 registry.  The build date is 10/69 and the invoice date was 11/13/1969 so it is a very early Type 65 possibly one that got away with the Pre-Fed bumper height.
