I'd love to know what happened as well.
My uncle restored a couple of MG roadsters with my grandfather when I was about 2 or 3. Sold one, kept one. The one he kept is now 20 years past it's restoration and still running - now he's planning to go back and spruce it up all over again.
That car is probably my uncle's most prized possession. It, like your lotus, has a strong connection to my grandfather who passed away last year. Yes it's an inanimate object, but these things have real sentimental worth and I think it's worth the pain to give those memories some life.
