Hi there xtec, sorry to put a dampner on things but you wont be able to run a panhard rod in u2tc etc. i presume thats the mounting youve fitted to boot floor? regards mick

Hi Nick,

thanks for sharing this information.
Am I understanding you correctly, there was NO panhard rod on the Lotus Cortina? Not even on the "race cars", I would be very surprised if Lotus
didn´t use a panhard rod to control the Axle movement!?

Cheers
Andreas

Thats right car was never homologated with a panhard rod

This race car was obviously modified back in the day, when all out speed was more important than todays love of originality, so the better, stronger, later twincam engine was used along with a uprated gearbox. Why is that reg so familiar?

Seen a few lotus cars with the NNO reg now including today on A car is rebourn on Discovery turbo, NNO 642C
