Bring a Trailer<\/a> has a unique 1969 Lotus Europa<\/a>. The listing states Sylvain Julien built the car in 2003 to use at the track. He swapped the factory inline-four for a 347 ci Ford V8. It features a SCAT stroker kit, hydraulic roller camshaft, aluminum heads, Ford Cobra exhaust headers, and Weber 48 IDA carburetors. Behind the motor is a Porsche 986 five-speed manual transaxle. The car rides on QA1 adjustable coilovers and stops thanks to Wilwood disc brakes. The custom fiberglass flares cover a set of Weld Racing 15×10-inch wheels. <\/p>\n
