November 2010 I decided to refurbish parts of my Lotus Elise, as I was unhappy about the level of corrosion at some parts.
Well, if I have one personal problem, than it´s that I can´t do jobs only the half way. During disassembly it turned out, that more parts needed careful attention than expected. This included wheel bearings, all ruber bushes, ball joints and much more.
Also (after driving around for a while) I decided to covert the RHD car to a LHD one.

Many many pictures of that journey could be found here: Elise Rebuild
