This well-preserved 1956 Lotus Eleven Series 1 Le Mans Project, with its sleek aluminum body and iconic twin-cam engine, is a rare gem from the golden era of British sports car racing. Originally delivered to the U.S., this vehicle, identified as chassis 242, has a distinguished past, having been campaigned in various SCCA events during the late 1950s by racer Frank Baptista after he acquired it from its original owner. Now, nearly six decades later, it still commands attention with its classic racing heritage and timeless design.
