NEIL what is this engine temperature sticker ? ( S2's had a temp sticker but not sure what he is describing ) And think i have only ever seen G reg early cars with opera glass ... so a late registration of an early car .
Jim Clark S2 - 1/12. The one with the Yellow spoke wheels . No 613 on dash (pushed in to factory in wrong order 615 on tub)

my guess car PP43... or there or there abouts, it's not an I.B. (Standard bonnet stay and plate, standard hood cover looking latches and such like)
Looks like it's had quite of bit of work, poor front end re spray,
The I.B. search continues

Sorry Dave but I think you may be asking the wrong chap, my speciality is getting them going again and keeping them working! Specky would be your expert I reckon.
Edit: aha, welcome back Dave!

looks very nice and i've read on here there are quite a few fans of yellow elans.
pity the seller hasn't rotated the photos correctly though.

That's David's silver SE. Alan was after it but David never got back to him with the info. required so Alan bought Grahame's Vagina Green S2 instead

Laquer peeling. Washed trying to make it not noticeable. I'd be very careful with this one

No, not seen that one before. Doesn't look bad though - the tan coloured hood is unique, and looks like quite a nice contrast.
Those bonnet NACA ducts don't look badly done either, although I'd question their value.
On the whole, pretty reasonable condition.

that car's been listed over and over again for the past 4-5 months, with the price dropping everytime. Saw it when i was first looking. Started out above £5k, so someone could get a very good deal.
It's been posted a couple of times in this topic too.
