Before you consider purchasing a 50-54 year old lotus Europa S2 with Renault drivetrain orTwin cam that is a barn find project $1K-$8K, advertised as a very easy projects to complete, that others attempted and have all the excuses why it ended up asis and up for sale.Or one claimed restored $25K-$45K, without true documentation of how long ago actual restoration was performed, and whichspecific items addressed, be aware of all the issues and hidden costs, includinglack ofavailability of new parts related to body shell, chassis, engine, transmission. These are very unique cars, the structural integrity of the fiberglass body shell and metallurgy of the chassis was in question when new, one can fear the worst after half a century. You will end up spending 2-3 times the actual market value of the car in repairs,refurbishing a supposed restored car. Not to mention the safety factor of key components that have been overlooked for cost savings or lack of experience by the builder.* We are not Brokers. Dealers. Flippers.
