Hi Mark,
Thanks for "signing in" with an update on the Westfield world. I still have
my Westfield Eleven . . I've finished the mechanical restoration but I
have still not mounted the new body; diverted to other things. Maybe your
note will inspire me to get back on it.
Cheers,
Tony
Westfield Eleven chassis #2

Hello!
I ran away from some other lists that had way too much chatter, but this is
getting too quiet for me.
I'm a long-time early lotus fan with the serious handicap of being over 6
feet tall. This places me firmly into Chunky's "mutant" category. About
three years ago, I decided to confront my handicap, and built a Westfield
Eleven (which does, more-or-less, accomodate my proportions).
Two years ago, it was driveable -- with some "quirks", like sudden massive
oversteer. I've since tamed the handling, but keep searching for the
perfect carb jetting (anyone here a Dellorto genius?).
