Price: US $6,000.00 SOLD OUT
This is a 1979 Triumph Spitfire 1500 with 32116 original miles and a 4 speed manual transmission.The car runs and drives well with the typical squeaks and rattles you would expect from a British sports car this old.It can be a little hard to start after driving around on a hot summer day due to vapor lock, but It will still start up reliably if you crank the engine for a few seconds.There is very little to no rust underneath the car, but there is some surface rust under the master brake cylinder.A lot of mods were done to improve driving and handling of car:* Dual SU HS4 carbs* SS Bell Exhaust and Headers* 123tune electronic programmable distributor* Chrome bumpers swap* 14x5.5 JBW Minilite replica rims* 185/60r14 Vredestein Quatrac 5 tires* New clutch master and slave cylinders and tubing with DOT5* New electric fuel pump* New fuel sending unit* Stainless steel braided brake lines* New front disc brakes* Headlight relay kit* Moto-lita wooden steering wheel* Differential lowering block* Rear Monroe air shocks* Lower, stiffer front springs* Hella H4 E-code headlights* ...and probably a couple others things I'm forgettingThis is a driver's car, not a garage queen, so there are lots of minor imperfections throughout the vehicle.Paint is original and has some marks and a crack in one spot.Some of the plastic snaps for the convertible top are broken, but the top still works when driving.The plastic windows on convertible top are warped and marred due to age.The rubber gasket on the passenger side is slightly torn.There are some other imperfections that you should be able to see in the Google Drive folder I've linked at the end of this listing. That folder includes many more pictures of the vehicle.https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1C5RgqDDrDDxWAJDcpP55VrbUjmn_5Gqe?usp=sharing
