A few pics of our latest CBU being prepped for paint. Bit special this one as it’s for a racer, so we added lightness, and will be seen out on a track in the very near future.
We have changed our GRP offerings now, working with a local partner who has been in the business for decades and the result are, in our biased opinion, rather lovely.
The finish out of the moulds is so good, not much paint prep work needed.
We intend to further develop our offered designs & options and more than happy to discuss specific requirements and/developments with our customers.

We have a standard S2 road car shell following in production which will be available for purchase soon.

Cheers

Website - Parts Shop Development

https://www.mk14components.com/shop

Due to requests received, we have developed the parts shop to now be able to create a wish list of "save items". These can then be stored separately than the purchase basket and moved between the 2 as required.

We hope this helps with browsing the site, being able to create a customised wish list over time as you go through the car and finding the parts on the site, rather than having to do it all at once.

Have a play, feedback always appreciated on how we can make the experience better.

Thanks
Adam

Project Car just come out of hibernation.

We are delighted to bring this light / medium restoration car to the market on behalf of the owners, having been in hibernation for many year is a dry garage.

Details are in the associated advert on the website.

Would not take much to get her back running, enjoy the summer and perhaps a subsequent rolling restoration or, a restoration project of a complete car, which is always a nice starting point.

We are of course, more than happy to offer the restoration in our workshop.

A very interesting car coming up for auction and so, thought it worth to share on our site.

1961 Lotus Elite Series 2 for sale at RM Sotheby's Cliveden House

Hello Everyone,

I am pleased to share the attached listing for a fantastic light restoration project Series 2 car that has been parked for many years, following a quite extensive restoration which, unfortunately, was not completed.

The majority of the parts are present to complete the car, or of course we are able to supply new replacements as needed/preferred and it really would not take much to get her finished and back on the road and again, we would be happy to discuss completing the car to any desired specification.

A fantastic opportunity to acquire that Elite that you may have always been looking for, in a nice original condition that just needs a few weekends to finish.

It is now with us at our workshop for viewing by appointment and/or video walk around call.

Cheers
Adam

Glad our posts seem to be of interest as this is now the 2nd system we have installed and a slightly different set up and so thought we’d share again. As it’s a road car, the main module it tucked away in the corner, which has to change on racers.

Oh… and we got the price wrong previously and so it’s now corrected with apologies.

Fire Extinguisher Systems

Following on from the previous post regarding the available Fire Extinguisher systems, here is an example of the plumbed in fire extinguisher system which we think is fitting and unobtrusive into the boot space.

Therefore, we have available the hand held Fire Safety Sticks, that many may prefer :

And now we have the full plumbed in system available if that is the preferred way to go, or of course both.

A full installation service is offered at our workshop.

New Product Available

We are pleased to show a new product that is now available for the differential mounting as, as we all know, this is a very critical part of the car integrity.

With the increasing demands in this area, in particular, from the race cars as they lay down more and more power and torque, we thought it was best / interesting to develop an upgraded mounting system.

The original metalastic bushes are still available along with the off the shelf Poly replacements, that are still an individual 2pc option (Product codes RT02 and RT02A)

Here, however, we have a singular and so fully integral polyurethane bush. This has a leading edge design on one end and the bush deforms enough to push through the housing, done from the diff side of the car (as shown). This can then be used with / without the central steel insert, prior to bolting as standard.

We believe this then avoids any flexing with the mounting that are 2 individual pieces, leading to greater stability and strength of fixing for the differential.

This maybe not for everyone, but the option is now there for those who would like to upgrade.

Chassis #17 in the shop for a check over, service and a few replacement parts, keeping her as original as possible. Running much better, after just some work on that single carb.

She is rather lovely in that gorgeous cream colour, but then we are biased 😍
