Lotus 7 Series 1 #804
Netherlands

I am restoring the car at the moment to its former glory, so I think better to wait to take pictures when its ready, it's in pieces at the moment. As you can see it had steel wheels when it was new. It was bought to race mainly at the Dutch Zandvoort circuit, where it was unbeatable.

The original owner when new, Tonio Hildebrand, now in his seventies (in a wheelchair) has seen the car. He is ill, so I hope that the car will be restored in time so that he can see it finished. When new it ran unpainted, later green with a yellow center stripe.

Restoration complete March 2007:
