My '72 Europa Twin Cam

Last November I bought a 1972 Lotus Europa Twin Cam and from then until now I've been renovating it, as a driver rather than a concours car. Last week I insured and registered it, and took it for its state inspection. It's now road legal, though not 100% finished. Come to think of it, it never will be!
Anyway, here's a link to some progress pictures I took on the way:

No they're never really finished, but yours is more finished than mine
