Pair of 1972 Lotus Elan Sprint Project Cars
These two classic project cars are a pair of rare 1972 Lotus Elan Sprints, lovingly crafted in the United Kingdom and now nestled in the sunny climate of California. They're known for their distinctive, sleek European sports car design with a long hood and short deck, made primarily from fiberglass for light weight. Each features a powerful Ford Cosworth twin-cam inline-four engine producing around 120 horsepower, paired with a Getrag four-speed manual transmission sending power to the rear wheels. Originally designed by renowned automotive engineer Colin Chapman, these cars are legendary for their exceptional handling and agility on any winding road. The yellow paint job adds an extra touch of sporty flair while their California residence suggests they've had plenty of sunshine but minimal harsh winters, keeping them in potentially excellent original condition despite being offered as projects.
