The car is ready to run down the road. There is a Porsche club event at my friend Tim's shop
They saw it disassembled and now a year later we will drive it away.
It still needs new seat and door covers
The suspension is dialed in - 49/51 weight distribution with me in the car - 1400 lbs empty 1/2 tank of race gas.
Removable Roll Bar
The engine runs great - definitely smoother and more rev able
(Aluminum Flywheel - wedged nitrided crank - Pauter rods - JE Pistons)
Elva Pictures
I added a few rare factory brochures that I have in possession-
There have been some opinions shared here that the Elva was not delivered as a well completed and outfitted car with shiny paint - The period brochures indicate quite a different story.
In fact my car is the lead in this brochure. It is the last of the Mark 2 cars - assembled by Trojan with bodywork that wraps around to the outboard frame and not brought to flange and bolted. and it is the last left hand drive cars.
More pictures tomorrow when it is on the road.
