INTRODUCTION This publication contains all assemblies and parts sold as spares; it enables one to determine with precision their Part Numbers and to identify them from the illustrations. Vehicle Chassis Number - The method of identifying a vehicle, whether Component-Built or Fully-Built, is by use of the Vehicle Chassis Number which is comprised of code numbers as shown below. The Vehicle Chassis Number will be found stamped on a plate which is fixed to the left-hand side of the engine bulkhead. 7001 . 0001A Both chassis and body numbers being the same. 7001 Represent year and month of manufacture. 0001 Represents the unit (chassis) number. A Represents the model code. As there are sixteen different model types within our present production control, the following codes will be used for correct model identification: - Elan Standard Fixed Head Great Britain & Northern Ireland A Elan Standard Fixed Head Export B Elan Standard Drop Head Great Britain & Northern Ireland C Elan Standard Drop Head Export D Elan Special Equip. Fixed Head Great Britain & Northern Ireland E Elan Special Equip. Fixed Head Export F Elan Special Equip. Drop Head Great Britain & Northern Ireland G Elan Special Equip. Drop Head Export H Elan Federal Fixed Head Export J Elan Federal Drop Head Export K Elan + 2 'S' Type Great Britain & Northern Ireland L Elan ÷ 2 'S' Type Export M Elan + 2 'S' Type Federal Export N Europa Standard Great Britain & Northern Ireland P Europa Standard Export Q Europa Federal Export R Part Numbers - All Part Numbers commence with the Vehicle Type Number which enables one to determine if the part is peculiar to the Europa or whether it was first used for some other Lotus 'road' vehicle, thus: - 46, 54, 65, 74 = First used on Europa 26, 36, 45, 500 = First used on Elan 50 = First used on Elan + 2 75 = First used on Europa Special Federal Standard Hardware Part Numbers - All standard finish bolts, Screws, Studs, Nuts, and Washers carry either Part Numbers in accordance with the code given on Page 7 or fixing numbers as listed in the Replacement Parts Price List. Commencing Chassis Number: The designations 'LEFT' and 'RIGHT' are to be understood as seen in the driving direction. Assembly and Sub-assembly piece parts are listed inset under the Assembly/Sub-assembly description and part numbers are given for obtainable piece parts. For easier identification, fixings (e.g. Bolts, Nuts, Pins, etc.) for replacement parts are also listed inset under the parts description. These fixings are NOT supplied with the replacement part and must be ordered separately as required.

Where necessary, 'CHANGE POINTS', (i.e. CHASSIS, BODY or ENGINE Nos.) will be indicated in the 'CHANGE POINT' column. The applicability of parts to vehicle variants together with the total quantity fitted per Variant, is given in the Quantity columns under the appropriate heading, and, where applicable, by a star annotation in the steering position columns.
