I looked up that design earlier today, too bad that the body does not taper more because of those rear taillights and the back half of the front wheels coverings isn't blended into the body.

If it were my time and money I'd rather invest in a Lotus Esprit barn find project car and at least have a remote hope of recouping my money.

I wonder what it would take to bring this Elan back to life.

If you have to ask, you cannot afford it?

I mean, if you are going to be playing with fiberglass, play big, right?
