I have a plus 2 with chassis no 50/0478 or so I thought
However on further stripping down the car I have found two instances where the chassis number 468 is written in crayon. One on the underside of the bonnet under the sound pad, and the other on the inside of the passenger door skin.
Hi Jon,
now you come to mention it…
both doors and bulkhead record 784. the plate and log book from early 70’s all have 50/734 and the engine number LP12044LBA matches this. There’s no mistaking the 8s for 3s on the doors and bulkhead…
i had a look on replacement galvanised chassis to see if there was any number but haven’t found one yet…

looking at front crossmember i find no number ,
someone mentioned looking on to of chassis by exhaust manifold… didn’t find one there either
It’s definitely a galvanised replacement chassis.

Sorry I have a Spyder chassis so do not know where the Lotus one is, there’s a pic attached of where a Spyder one is, not really very helpful but interesting?
