I found this pic while I was looking at Westfields. According to the filename, it's some sort of Lotus. Anyone know what kind or how old this is? Whatever it is, it looks awesome. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

Well, judging by the BRG paint, the yellow wheels and, uh, the Lotus badge, I'd guess it's a Lotus.

Paint scheme and hood ornament suggests Lotus, F1 or "Grand Prix" circa 1960?

I figured it was some sort of Lotus Formula racer. Looks like a blast. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
