If this Dallas 100 + degree weather ever goes away, I'll be cleaning machines for weeks.

She looks very much like my Lotus...only mine was originally treadled and had a modern motor on it. We took the motor off and put her back in a treadle cabinet I got. Aren't they wonderful!! I love that you found a HC Lotus!! Very nice.
