    I could, Ken, but there are many of them here and many more original...

    As can be seen with every pic of a Seven above, that cannot be an 'original factory roll bar'.

    Ray,
    The 1965 photos of the Thompson's Lotus Seven seem to show a roll bar very similar to the 1962 Seven on sale although perhaps not as sturdy. So could not that type of roll bar have been a factory option in 1962 ?
    BTW That 1962 Seven for sale is actually just 60 miles north here. (See below.)
