  • Vehicle Overview

    This car is a scratch built replica of a Lotus Seven that I built in 2002. The car was built using plans in a book called "Build Your Own Sports Car for as Little as 250 (Brittish Pounds)". This book shows how to build the car using a donor vehicle for most of the drivetrain & suspension. The car is street legal and weighs about 1,400 lbs. Engine: 1987 Toyota Corolla 1.6L Twin Cam 4AGE Motorcycle Throttle Bodies - Suzuki 600GSXR Fabricated Intake Manifold Fuel Injection Custom Made Header Billet Timing Pulleys Transmission: 1987 Toyota Corolla 5-Speed Manual Rear Axle: 1987 Toyota Corolla 4.30:1 Final Drive Limited Slip Differential Front Suspension: Custom Made A-Arms Coil-Over Shocks Mustang II Spindles & Brakes Rotors Re-drilled to match Rear Axle Bolt Pattern Rear Suspension: Custom Made 4-link w/ Panhard Bar Coil-Over Shocks Wheels: SuperLite - Similar in design to Minilite or Panasport wheels Chassis: 1.0" Square Tubing - Space Frame Body: Aluminum Sheet Riveted Onto Space Frame Fenders, Cowl & Nose are Fiberglass Front Fenders Attach to Spindles & Turn w/ Wheels Steering: Coleman Rack & Pinion
