My first contact with "The
Seven" was at an exhibition in Gothenburg, Sweden in 1966.
I "fell in love" with that car, but I have not been
able to buy a seven until now.
I bought my Lotus Super 7 Cosworth
14. April 1999 from a car dealer called "Roadster Square"
in Oslo Norway. This week (10 - 2001) I begin reassembly of my
car with new and original parts. The car left the factory in
Delamare Road, Cheshunt in Hertfordshire, UK 10. March 1962.
The customer was: M. Wilson,
31,Greenhill Avenue, High Brompton, Show, Oldham, (Lancashire)
I don't know anything about the
car until 31. July 1996: It was sent from Kirsten Tams in American
Freight Line, Huntington Beach, CA, 15. Aug 1996, with Hoger
Fischer Spedisjon A/S in Oslo, Norway. I have some pictures of
the car before it was shipped from CA.
I have had some contact with
the person who found the car and shipped it to Norway, his name
is Jeff Harwin, and I think he lives in San Marcos, California.
He has not been able to help me either.
The car is currently yellow,
I think it has also been blue, but it was originally bare aluminum
and red. The signs/number plates are from California, they are
blue with yellow digits, and the number is 738 ZXL, in the left
corner there is a white label which reads "Oct".
