I had a Super 907 frame a few years back - and an S4. The S4 had not been driven since 1978 - and when I picked it up was suprised it came with a spare TC engine.

Haven't read the earlier posts but I think the Steels bought the licence to make 50 cars - and bought 50 engines. Those were all Big Valve but the last 50 odd had the earlier small valve engine - they came from Australia unused from the Escort production. Because mine was a 'first 50' it was a "genuine Lotus" one. I think Steels just kept on making them after the 50 and I doubt either them or Lotus really cared.

Good luck with the new car - as your say very ugly! Aghhh..

The McGregor Seven guy from Chch had the moulds for the Super 907 I think.
