Barron. The design target of the Lotus Seven S4 (Type 60) was to aimed at meeting several requirements: Lower cost of production, in particular the chassis and the hand beaten aluminum panels. Reduce the time of manufacture from the 12 hours for the Series 3. Find a market to a wider owner base with improved driver comfort and weather protection. Compete with sports cars from major manufacturers, such as MG Midget and Triumph Spitfire Provide a first step on the ladder of Lotus ownership. Take advantage of the 1970s “beach buggy” craze. The success of the design of the Seven S4, and the choice of various components, should be considered with regard to these goals. As such the S4 was a rather clever piece of design that largely overcame the cost problems of the Seven S3. Chassis and bod Although the Peter Lucas designed chassis of the Type 60 Seven S4 is basically a tubular frame design, it is significantly simplified as compared to the proceeding Seven models. Using steel square upper and lower side tubes with triangulation and cross members with square steel tubes, the main chassis was simple in design (Figure 1 (#id3640890) ). A rear frame was made from round tubular steel. The upper rear chassis doubled as the attachment point for the fuel tank, the seat belts, and the body to the chassis.
