Description:

I'm listing this 1971 Triumph Spitfire for a friend of mine. The car has been very well cared for as you will read and see in auction description. The car is available to be seen and driven anytime during the auction. The car is located at my house in Stanfield North Carolina 28163. Heritage: This is a rare true numbers matching car and you can order a British Heritage Certificate from England or I can do it for you. The cars commission date was Oct. 1971, commission number is FK 25509 L and the engine number is FK 25614 UE. The original paint code is #72 Pimento Red and the interior trim code is #33 New Tan. Mechanically: The car runs great and has tight and responsive steering. The car starts right up with no issues or smoke and holds very good oil pressure. The car has been recently converted to a Webber carburetor system for reliability and performance ( car comes with its original carburetor, intake manifold and air cleaner ). New items this year include new tires, new front shocks, new rear shocks, new urethane front bushings, new ball joints, new battery, new fuel pump, new gas tank, new hoses and filters. The car shifts up / down through all gears with no bidding or grinding of the gears. At this time I know of nothing the car needs other that to be driven and enjoyed. I would not hesitate to drive this car any distance. Electrical's: This area is in excellent condition with the following items in working order. Headlights ( high & low beam ) work , wipers work, front & rear turn signals work, front & rear running lights work, front and rear side marker lights work, brake lights work, backup lights work, license plate lights work, dash gauge lights work, dash indicator lights work and interior courtesy light works. Gauges: All gauges are correct and original. Interior: Nice presentable condition with new door panels and Triumph logo floor mats. Not perfect but very presentable. Exterior: The car presents herself nicely in the photos and in person. The high end Dunlop tires and wire wheels wheel a really sets the car off and apart from what you normally see out there. The car sits nicely on the ground with no signs of leaning or sagging. As seen all body panels, hood, trunk, wheel arches, dog legs, front and rear lower valances and doors are very straight. No signs of rust or rust repairs that I can find. All exterior locks work using the key. Underbody: Is rock solid with no signs of repair. Covers: The car comes with a top cover and Tonneau cover ( cover the cockpit when the top is down ). Trunk: The trunk is solid and has a spare wheel, repair manual and the original carburetor system.

I know how hard it is to purchase a car online so please ask any and all questions you have prior to bidding or if you can come see and drive the car for yourself ( I really encourage you to do so ) as I want the winning bidder to be satisfied with the car when it arrives.
