Lost/Not Found
Let everyone know you're looking for a lost friend.
1969 S2 2 Europa.
I would like to locate my 1969 S2 Lotus Europa. First registered in CA with the tag 099BEK, The Serial Number is 65/2654, Engine No. 0449, and Transmission No. 874. It was originally painted a “special tangerine” color by Lotus. It’s not Lotus “Colorado Orange”, somewhat more red, but definitely orange. It has the Hermes HLR681 kit with high lift cam. I am optimistically using present tense in my description in hopes that it is still milling around happily as ever. Garry Parrish garryparrish@sbcglobal.net
Series 2 Europa, #54/1540.
I am hoping to locate a Europa I used to own. It was chassis #54/1540, engine #1552, and transmission #0194 and it is a red 1969 S2 Type 54. I sold it to someone in Florida in 1998 and I am really hoping to get it back. - Greg gboshart@mac.com.
My old Series 2 Europa, #0334R.
Seeking information about whose cars benefited from the parting out of the car........anything I suppose so that I would know to what extent the car was used to help others complete their Europa projects.

I'm looking for my old 1971 S2 that I owned from about 1972 - 1977 in Wisconsin.
- I don't know the VIN but I sold it a woman in Illinois. It was repainted a Porsche green that was similar to L22 Bitter Green. It had Cosmics, Hermes & 45DCOE as well as a custom rosewood dash I made. Contact Craig if you know where this car is.
My father owned a 1974 Lotus Europa Special TwinCam (74044519R).
- He gave it to me in 1994 and I sold it in 2004, I think, to a gentleman named Tim who lived in or near Sherman Oaks, CA. I would like to see if the car is still around and possibly for sale.

- Contact Jerry if you know where this car is.
I have for ages been trying to find my old Europa. 1971.
- Black as a JPS. all black inside, front grill was a cast metal unit. and the front spoiler was about twice the depth. I bought this car from the factory, it had been sitting a building there for years. a friend who work for Lotus told me about it it was under a cover and covered in years of dust and grime, sitting on 4 flat tyres. I went to the factory with a map of where it was, as on the phone they did not know anything about it. anyway I bought it, and got it home on a trailer. There were lots of things around the car that were different from normal, ie spoiler/very nice cast front grill and all the trim in black. All the JPS livery was painted on, not stick on, very nice job by a sign writer. I do not remember the chassis number. but the reg number was 1283 MC.

I am trying to locate what happened to my old Europa from the 1980s.
- Brief history is as follows:
- It was we believe a Federal Europa (it had flattened tops of front guards and taller cockpit to others we knew)
- I bought it from Leighton Cochran (Brisbane Qld Australia) in 1982? When it was red when I bought it
- I repainted it blue/white and fitted gold mags and 16ts motor with really unusual twin extractors, 2x weber carbies and no bumpers
- Sold to back to Leighton Cochran in mid 1980s and he drove it to Melbourne where he then was working as an engineer
- He sold it in Melbourne when he moved to USA in late 1980s
- It had no chassis plate we could find!
- Attached are 2 photos when I owned it
- I currently own 541163 (would love to find those old mags!)
- Please contact me at Mark Mathiesen.

I bought a dark blue S2 (#OVG688J)from the Lotus factory in November 1970 and took delivery at the port in Detroit. It was factory modified with high-lifting cam, 45 DCOE Weber and bundle-of-snakes exhaust system. I sold it along with spare parts and a factory shop manual in 1972, in Cleveland, to a French grad student at CWRU, because I needed a car that could pull a trailer to move me to Boston.
I still drive "Lucy" in my dreams and wondered if anybody out there is lucky enough to still have her. Please let me know that she's still sassy and beautiful.
