Hi,
I reaching out to you for some assistance in finding a new home for my Father's (sole owner) Europa. I love the car, but I've done as much as I can to get her going and stopping after being garaged for 26 years. She is a 100% survivor. All original parts including
the glass bowl fuel pump, minus the 70's emission control stuff. Have a lot of original documentation. Following is a list of what I accomplished with another Lotus enthusiast I meet when I joined the Lotus Corps club.
Rebuilt the Stromberg carbs.
Rebuilt Altmeter - Nissonger Instruments
Rebuilt the alternator
Rebuilt master brake cylinder - - White Post Restorations
Rebuilt both Girling brake boosters - White Post Restorations
New clutch cable
New throttle cable
Rebuilt front and rear brakes - all parts from RD Enterprises. Installed stainless steel cylinders into the calipers
Replaced clutch cable (probably needs adjusting)
Replaced brake lines that need replacing. Not a professional job so would recommend a redo but they do the job for now. No brake fluid leaks.
New battery
Following are some YouTube links and a Goolge drive of photos. Please excuse the color commentary from the peanut gallery (my wife and a friend).

Will be sad to see her go, but she needs a new home.
