Mark,
Thanks for the additional images. The "J" suffix in the VIN confirms it is a federal specification fixed-head Elan. The paint code looks correct as LO4 is Cirrus White. The VIN list at the Sports Car World web site lists the engine number as G22236 and the build or invoice date as May 18, 1970.
