I would estimate $80 to $85k US.

The lack of an Lotus chassis plate is a problem and the seller doesnt mention the Arch motors chassis number at all.

The 207 stamped on the body seems at odds with his claim it could be an early works car , total Eleven production was 270 so that would place it as a much later example.

The ROV 511G reg number is a Birmingham issue plate from 1969.

neat car though as they all are.

Chassis nos were quite possibly "lost",assuming it spent the first ten years of its life racing it may have had chassis tubes replaced and any nos. lost,when it was road registered in `68 it would have had to have been given a number,yet that has gone as well,a `57 mk two was chassis no 282 so 207 is not a million miles away.
