More digging thru archives. Likely around Christmas 1985.

A 16mm wide-angle lens. The Elans were home, the tin Lotus likely off to work as Mitsy's daily.

Wowsa, that's a lovely pair! In that last picture at first I thought I was looking at the rear of the car. Those turn signals look like rear lights.
