Condition

This is a race car, not a street car. As such, it is hard to compare with street cars and it is in 'race ready' condition. It's modified in the style of an Elan 26R, featuring a Tony Thompson Racing body shell, Modsports chassis, and a 1.6-liter twin-cam inline-four engine. It includes racing-specific modifications like a dog box transmission, limited-slip differential, and safety equipment.

This 1966 Lotus Elan S2 race car was acquired by the selling dealer nine years ago and subsequently modified in the style of an Elan 26R using parts from another donor car.

The resulting build is made up of a Tony Thompson Racing 26R-style fiberglass body shell on a Modsports chassis, and power is provided by a 1.6-liter twin-cam inline-four featuring dual Weber 45mm carburetors and paired with an aluminum-case four-speed transmission with a dog box conversion.
