PROJECT

1967 Elan S3 Restoration

Assisting the owner in his garage.

Back to Projects Page

The owner restored the body, chassis and engine, but needed help with the electrics and starting the engine.

The pre-made wire harness wasn't an exact fit, so, many hours were spent "getting it right." Also, the harness was changed for an Alternator, Electric Fuel Pump and Lucas Electronic Ignition.

Modified a new Triumph radiator to fit. Remove the top pipe and shorten then reinstall at the correct angle.

The bottom pipe only needs to be loosened and rotated.

Installed two 9" fans on front of the radiator.
Used a different mounting method than Don's Elan.
Progress! All electrics working. All cables connected. Hydraulics, exhaust, steering and engine ready.
It's not finished, but enought was completed to drive to LOG30 and back home without a problem.
