I did not fix my lotus challenger, instead...
Instead I went ahead and searched on craigslist. This guy has a lotus challenger SX he needed to get off of his hands, and I got it for only $100. I made a different thread earlier this week called "Should I fix my lotus Challenger," did i make the right move? Should I use it for parts on my other lotus or stick to this one?

Yeah, I think I'd go with a fail on your decision given your options from your previous thread. But to each his own, a project is always good fun.

Yeah, I'm thinking about using the parts from this bike to put it on my original lotus and reselling this one. I could probably sell it back for $100

I think the handlebar on some of the Challenger SX models were engraved with the Lotus logo? That would look cool on your other bike, even if not completely original.
Given the two bikes I'd rather have the other one.
