Hello All!

Thank you for welcoming me to your community.

I'm a life long Brit car fan. I recall my parents' having cars ranging from MG, Austin, Lotus, Ford, Honda and countless other makes. I've been fortunate enough to get my father's Lotus Europa TCS back from a friend after 20+ years. I also have a 1967 Cooper S (genuine and all original) as well as a 1973 MG Midget RWA that is almost ready for the road.

I've already made use of the forum when I found a template for a shifter boot!

Thank you for the welcome. I look forward to reading up on everyone.

Happy to have you aboard, Mark! The Europa has always been one of my favorites! Any pictures?

Welcome! That's a John Player Special isn't it? (JPS - my initials) Back when I was a smoker I always thought if they were nice enough to put my initials on the pack I should smoke them. However, they were so strong they would be killing me after about 48 hours.

great car - but low!

You said in your intro the Europa was a TCS? Did you mean JPS (John Player Special)? That's kinda what it looks like from the pictures.
