Vehicle Description
The Lotus Seven Series Two was produced from June 1960 to August
1968 with approximately 1310 examples being made over the 8 year
period, mostly at the Delamare Road Factory in Cheshunt,
Hertfordshire. The multi tubular space frame chassis were produced
by the Progress Chassis Company and later at the Universal Radiator
Company. The Aluminium Bodywork was produced by the Alert Company
and later by Arch Motors.
From a major European collection with a JD Classics customer, this
1962 Lotus Seven Series Two was supplied by the Delamare Road
Factory on 13th February 1962 to a Mr B.T. Symonds of Wembley,
Middlesex. The chassis, being a relatively early unit, was produced
by �Progress' and the bodywork by �Alert'. The Lotus 7 register has
confirmed that the original engine was a Super Seven Ford 109E
Cosworth unit with twin 40DCOE carburettors, although the Seven is
currently fitted with a 1500cc �Kent' engine and twin 40DCOE Weber
carburettors. Following a painstaking restoration, this delightful
car has been carefully maintained by JD Classics since 2006 and
recently took part in the 2016 Bernina Gran Tourismo.
