Sorry about that, but don't we all have piles of cash just waiting for the next project to come along. I traded messages with the builder. He used first rate components for frame suspension, etc. At

I had a Westfield. I bought over a Caterham because it was less money and I got what I paid for: a poorly engineered copy of a Lotus. Just like repro parts on any other car, everything was close but

Hi Crash, I know that this isn't really Spridget related but how did you say that you removed the 116E block Ford engine from your Seven? I am curious as the E.Ford engine is a very tight fit in a Se

Caterhams 7s often go for more money than original Lotuses... really! Exception would be a Lotus 7 with some "history", and obviously if one of the original 13 Lotus Seven S3 Twin Cam came up for sal

The "rustless" qualities were not meant as an absolute. Think in more general terms. I have owned around 20 Spridgets, mostly Bugeyes and they really rust without even being used. I spent a ton of mo
