Добрый день Всем! Хочу рассказать за постройку Лотус 7 на Украине, город Одесса.
Проект начат в 2010 году.
За несколько лет теоретической подготовки знаю, что хочу увидеть на финише и более менее план набросал.
С рамой сложностей не испытал, имел опыт приличный, работал сварщиком на заводе VOLVO
Надеюсь на интерес к моему проекту и общению

Слухай друже
Ти не будуєш Льотус Севен , на твої картині
це Льокост.
Я маю досвідченя в тім проекті і допоможу

Спасибо за горячий приём и интерес. С радостью расскажу всё, что сделал до сегодняшнего дня и покажу на фото.
Я использую новые детали от автомобиля ВАЗ. Донор не покупал, в Украине старые машины дорого и плохие.
Книгу использовал Рон Чампион но делаю немного изменений. Двигатель ВАЗ 2104, 1500 см 3 и оминальная
мощность двигателя при частоте вращения коленчатого вала 5000 об/мин,: 50,0 кВт.- (68,0 л.с.) Мощность небольшая но можно доработать и поднять до 120 л.с. Хочу сделать машину лёгкую для хорошей скорости. Когда строю узнаю много нового, интересного.
Чтоб сделать передние рычаги сделал кондуктор. С заднего моста срезал все крепления и сделаю свои. Задняя панель из алюминия 3 мм. Много сил ушло когда делал панель.

Thank you for your warm welcome and interest. We are pleased to tell you all that he had done to date and show the photo.
I'm using the new parts of the VAZ. Donor did not buy, in Ukraine the old machine is expensive and bad.
Ron Champion book used but make a few changes. Engine VAZ 2104, 1500 cm 3 and a nominal power of the engine at cranking speed 5000 r / min: 50,0 kW .- (68.0 hp) Power a small but can be modified and up to 120 hp I want to make the car easy for a good speed. When the ranks learn many new, interesting.
To make the front levers made ​​jig. On the rear axle cut all the fixtures and make your own. Rear panel made ​​of aluminum of 3 mm. Much effort went when I did the panel.

Ewhen hello, Я нормально говорю и на украинском и на русском но Одесса город многонациональный и все говорят на русском. Я очень плохо знаю английский язык и поэтому пишу на двух языках, может если не понятен мой английский смогут перевести с оригинала.
Я с удовольствием познакомлюсь и пообщаюсь мой майл viziter2006@yahoo.com

Nice workshop decor! :D
Это гараж в котором ставлю машину., Для работы сделал стол с колёсами, ставил под стенку и заезжал машиной. Мне нравятся ваши гаражи, много инструмента, станки
Я сейчас работаю водителем и строю мечту вечерами и выходной день.

This is a garage where I put the car., For he made the table with wheels, placed under the wall and dropped in the machine. I like your garage, a lot of tools, machines
I am working on a driver and build a dream on evenings and weekends.



What kind of welding are you doing?
I use carbon dioxide welding. ( correctly understood the question? )

Евген, Це твій локост? Дуже добре виглядає і бачу що потужний двигун. Підкажи будь ласка в чому різниця між лотус і локост.
