1542.0. "RS2000s and Lotus Elans" by SHAWB1::WHITTLEI () Tue Sep 10 1991 10:40

	Hi,

	I am a mature(ish) student spending 15 months with the company,
	as the 3rd year of my degree.
	More relevant to this conference I also own a Mk1 RS2000 which
	has been languishing in my garage for the last few years. Before
	I stored it away I waxoiled all the cavities & underbody & stripped
	out all the trim, well what was left after someone decided they
	would refurbish their own car at my expense (you know, dashboard,
	cloth seats, etc.) I have decided to start the major task of
	restoration & have bought proper Ford wings & front panel but really
	could do with inner wings, rear wheel arch repair, etc. I look
	forward to communicating with other enthusiasts over the next year.

	Are there any RS owner club members out there, who could send me
	details of how to become a member?

	Does anyone have any goodies for sale which I might need?

	By the way the other love of my life, apart from fiancee (yuk I
	mean girlfriend), cats & decorating, is my Elan +2 (another project
	I started before I went back to Poly) which I have so far completely
	restored the rolling chassis with a new Spyder spaceframe etc. If 
	there's any other Lotus owners out there I'd be well happy to talk.

	Great conference, look forward to using it.

	Ian..... 

    Your best bet for panels for the RS is a company called withers of
    winsford. Their address can be found in the back of the Motoring news 
    (You'll get one in John Menzies.) Or I`ll hunt it out tonight.
    As for the RSOC i`ll hunt that out also if no one has one handy.
    If you've got the cash within the next few weeks you should 
    get some parts at bargain prices at the National day over at Donington
    park.
