Reception Area, Hethel
« on: Tuesday,February 04, 2020, 05:27:26 AM »
Hello all,

I was browsing through the photographs shared to the lotus-europa.com site and I found this photograph shared by Ray Bisordi and I couldn't help but be impressed!
Taken in late 1966 or early 1967, it features a prototype or production S1 displayed in the reception area at Hethel, fantastic!

What a time to have been involved with anything at Lotus....

Cool photo. I snagged a copy for my collection.

The Twin Cam plays the symphony whilst my right foot conducts the orchestra. At 3800 rpm the Mad Pipe Organ joins in.
