Where'd you get the 'stuff?'

Nice job!

The knob came from Amazon. Scored the gate used from another Lotus owner.

The gate is quite beautiful!

Gives it more of that “exotic” look and feel.

with Lucas electronics!

"LUCAS ELECTRONICS - the "PRINCE OF DARKNESS!"

Funny you say that, was hardwiring a radar detector yesterday and now my headlights aren’t working!
The joys of British engineering! (Pretty sure I knocked a wire loose running the detector power cord…)

Why didn't the Germans bomb the Lucas plants during WWII? The Germans considered Lucas an ally.
The Lucas motto: "Get home before dark."
"And the Lord said 'let there be light'...Joseph Lucas replied 'no way, Lord, no way'."
Lucas denies having invented darkness. But they still claim "sudden, unexpected darkness".
Lucas--inventor of the first intermittent wiper.
Lucas--inventor of the self-dimming headlamp.
The three-position Lucas switch--DIM, FLICKER and OFF. The other three switch settings--SMOKE, SMOLDER and IGNITE.
The original anti-theft devices--Lucas Electric products.
"I've had a Lucas pacemaker for years and have never experienced any prob..."
If Lucas made guns, wars would not start either.
Did you hear about the Lucas powered torpedo? It sank.
It's not true that Lucas, in 1947, tried to get Parliament to repeal Ohm's Law. They withdrew their efforts when they met too much resistance.
Did you hear the one about the guy that peeked into a Land Rover and asked the owner "How can you tell one switch from another at night, since they all look the same?" "He replied, it doesn't matter which one you use, nothing happens!"
Back in the '70s Lucas decided to diversify its product line and began manufacturing vacuum cleaners. It was the only product they offered which didn't suck.
Quality Assurance phoned and advised the Engineering guy that they had trouble with his design shorting out. So he made the wires longer.
Why do the English drink warm beer? Lucas made the refrigerators, too.
Alexander Graham Bell invented the Telephone. Thomas Edison invented the Light Bulb. Joseph Lucas invented the Short Circuit.
Recommended procedure before taking on a repair of Lucas equipment: check the position of the stars, kill a chicken and walk three times clockwise around your car chanting: "Oh mighty Prince of Darkness protect your unworthy servant."
Lucas systems actually uses AC current; it just has a random frequency.
Lucas is an acronym for Loose Unsoldered Connections and Splices.
In the 1980's Lucas tried to get into the newly burgeoning PC market, but they discontinued the product when they couldn't make it leak oil.
Why are there no skyscrapers in London? Lucas makes elevators
Lucas Factory motto, put in a good day's work then home before dark.
Why is there no death penalty in England? Lucas makes electric chairs.



PS: Laughing WITH you (if you're laughing) - I owned an Austin Healey!

Once the smoke escapes, it must be replenished for the next time you try to start the car.

I kept the top down all summer anyhow!

Meanie has a nice tidy dashboard. Not too many geegaws.

It’s really nothing more than a street legal go cart. My Mini dwarfs her…

How do you like it? Any storage space for suitcases or a cooler?

Best of both worlds, Lotus chassis / styling and a Toyota drivetrain.

Love to have one, but the '71 MBG GT, '72 TR6 and '85 MR2 take up all avail garage space.

I absolutely love it!

Not much storage space though. Basically a duffle bag and very small cooler.....

Nice collection btw!

Here she is now with stripes, front splitter, side skirts new mirrors….
