Yeah... I don't know if I could part with a car after that much work.
He posted it in the for sale section here, and I posted it for him on Corvette Forum OT... The first bid came from there <img border="0" src="smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

Sugino's Custom Built Seven:
Lotus Super Seven (Caterham), Cosworth 2L BDP
Miles: 0
Year: 1962
VIN Number: AAV71338596A
Vehicle Description
1962 Lotus Super Seven (Caterham):
Custom built over the last 15 years with over 4000 hours of my time invested. This street legal car has a clear Arizona title, but has never been registered. This is a new car with zero miles. The car is very unique with everything polished aluminum, nickel plated, chrome plated, polished stainless steel, anodized aluminum or carbon fiber, but no paint. Nothing was spared during the build, only the highest quality components were used. I enjoy building cars and with this finished, it is time to sell it.
I am willing to sell the car without the engine (with supporting components) and or drivetrain.
Do not hesitate to contact me. Email me through Ebay and I will contact you as soon as possible.
