1974 Triumph Spitfire Additional Info:
This is a beautiful car, absolutely stunning, distinctive, legendary, performance inspired sports car. Frame off restoration to its former glory. Better than when it came out of the factory. Car was dis-assembled down to the last nut and bolt and then re-assembled with either new, rebuilt, improved, or refurbished components.
All suspension, wheels, and frame powdercoated. Fit and Finish is flawless. Dashboard is hand matched, solid, exotic Cocobola wood, hand carried from Costa Rica. Aluminum radiator. Improved, high back, ergonomic seats.
Following re-assembly, the car was carefully block sanded to show quality finish. Panel fitness is almost flawless and better than that came from the factory. Two stage professional paint with five coats of clear was then extensively wet sanded and buffed to a mirror like finish. Finished with high visibility, flame red paint makes this two seater look faster and more expensive than most.
Shod with brand new Michelins, ceramic coated exhaust manifold and tuned exhaust makes a wonderful crisp, throaty, baritone wail at speed. Rebuilt engine fitted with Webber carburetor, and rebuilt overdrive transmission.
Comes with new soft top and restored, matching, original steel hardtop.
The clear multiple high resolution images of this car will do a much better job of describing the look, style, beauty and value of this car than any words ever could A complete list of the build is too long to be listed here but is available by email. Zero miles except for sorting after the build.
This is a true bargain in the collectible car arena and a beautiful addition for any serious collector.
