Stu Cooper Posted April 20, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2021 I have started stripping the Elan and removing the body from the chassis. Does anyone know where to get a centre consul plastic moulding. The padded arm rest is OK but the moulding is broken around the gear leaver.

Stu Cooper Posted September 1, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Hi, The rolling chassis is finished and I am preparing the body for spraying. Does anyone out there have experience of spraying an elan or any fibreglass car with clear over base? my TVR was finished in clear coat and looked fantastic. Thanks to John Watkins for info on the centre consul it in the post to NZ and should arrive along with new body seals, door and boot rubbers and new lights. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonwat Posted September 1, 2021 Report Share Posted September 1, 2021 Looking good, what have you painted the chassis with? If you're thinking of painting it yourself I'd recommend reading this by Miles Wilkins, a very talented fibreglass restorer & painter Quote Cheers, John W http://jonwatkins.co.uk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Cooper Posted January 26 Author Report Share Posted January 26 anyone know where I can get 2 x aluminium gutter trims for an S4 FHC? Thanks Stu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADF Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 You could try sue miller ( www.mickmillerlotus.com ) I believe she had some when we were looking at bits for our beloved S4 SE FHC. It was a few years ago though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
