I do like Lotus a lot Phil. It's small, nimble and light. It's sorta like a 912 but with a mid-engine. This one is special in that they only made 150 in JPS livery to celebrate Mario Andretti's trifecta wine for Lotus. 50 came to the US and my car is #007 with 16,300 original miles and original everything.

Then again, its a joke compared to a Turbo and would be the first car to go if room was needed.

Are you currently restoring 2 cars? The one you speak about in this thread plus the yellow one?

Any update on progress? I am also curious about this new book you guys are referencing. I would love to add it to the Porsche literature collection!
