Price: US $2,000.00
For sale is a beautiful 1966 Triumph Spitfire Mark 2
1147cc with it's original, matching numbers, engine and transmission. Included
is the rare original steel hardtop although that needs to be refinished.
I have been the second owner of this gem since 1991. The
Spitfire has been fully restored. Restoration included repairing all
body work and a professional paint job. New interior and convertible top.
Refresh of the engine, transmission, clutch, suspension, brakes, and carburetor
systems. . The chrome trim and front bumper are original and have been
polished. The rear chrome bumpers are new. Car has black and white
hounds-tooth high back seats from a later model Spitfire 1500. Included
are the original low back seats in black with white piping that are in great
condition. All gauges are in good working order. Also added
an electric fan to the radiator and have had no overheating issues. The
frame was cleaned of rust and treated. The
body work and paint job is absolutely stunning and really shine. You won't find
a nice painted Spitfire.
Since the restoration was completed this car has been a
reliable driver that I would take down to the beach for the weekend or cruise
around in style. The car has sporty handling and feels like a big go-kart. A
great car to cruise in and enjoy the scenery. The car gets a great deal of
attention wherever it is driven. It's a great see and be
seen car and holds its own against the all the muscle cars at cruise
nights. This car has won several awards at shows and was featured in an all
Triumph calendar published by Eastgate Classics in 2002.
I have purchased my British dream car and have decided to
let this one go so a third owner can enjoy. The car starts right up and
goes. It has a great exhaust note and darts around like a go-kart.
This is a perfect car for someone who wants something
reliable and a little different. It's a great attention getter!!! The
parts are easy to come by and very reasonably priced.
The car is located and can be seen in Port St. Lucie
Florida.
The buyer will be responsible for shipping.
I'm asking $8200 but feel free to
give me a counter offer. I think that is a fair price for the car and it's
condition.
