Take a look at this Triumph
Spitfire! She is a Beauty. Everything a British Sports car should be. This
is a solid car that you can get in and drive. I bought this car from a
retired school teacher four years ago. It was her baby- garage kept- always
covered- never saw rain or snow. She no longer had the health to drive the car
(Bad knees). Since I have had it I
continued to keep it mechanically up to snuff: And all I can add is that it is
fun, fun, fun to drive. With the added feature of an upgraded music system, Pioneer/Jensen. Along with a set of professionally installed speakers. All
you’ll need is an open road! Beautiful condition for her age with many more
wonderful miles of life to come.
