Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Title: Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Creator: Ludvigsen, Karl E. Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.

The rare yellow Lotus 6 used to come to the Palo Alto meet but obviously moved down south - these cars were fitted with MG T-series running gear at the factory.

  • Club Lotus Elan Section
    CLUB LOTUS ELAN SECTION The 1970 Lotus advert with Dr Hammond Building an Elan from a Kit – In a Weekend? Over the years the Elan has gained a reputation, unfairly we would argue, of being nothing more than a kit car. This somewhat shallow view ignores the very fine driving qualities of a car we all admire and treasure! However, Colin Chapman realised that his rather expensive two seater could be made more attractive to his potential customers if they did not have to pay UK Purchase Tax on their Elan. This could be achieved, under the tax regime of the day, by supplying a car in ‘Component Form’. This is what Lotus did to increase the appeal of the much admired Elan to a wider motoring public. A buyer could save up to 30% on the price of a fully factory assembled Elan in this way. We would point out, however, that in reality, the Elan was never a kit car or component car, but a car delivered to the customer for final assembly, predominantly using pre-built sub-assemblies. A kit car, also known as a "component car", is one that is available as a set of parts that a manufacturer sells and the buyer then either assembles into a car themselves, or retains a third party to do part or all of the work on their behalf. It was in 1896 that an Englishman, Thomas Hyler White first developed a design for a car that could be assembled at home. His designs were published in a magazine called ‘The English Mechanic’ and he later wrote a book, ‘Petrol Motors and Motor Cars: A Handbook for Engineers, Designers, and Draftsmen’ about his ideas.
