Vehicle Detail
Available for you to consider is a first time offering of this beautifully restored Triumph Spitfire MK2. This is a National Show winner vehicle. An absolute stunning automobile. A vehicle that truly needs to be seen and driven to fully appreciate this car. Pictures do this car no justice. If at all possible please take the time to come look at this car. This vehicle belonged to a long time Triumph collector. This is a late 1965 Triumph titled as a 1966. This seemed to happen often with these cars from what I am told. Always stored in a climate controlled area. This vehicle is being sold due to his illness. A once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase an unbelievable automobile. You will be amazed. This vehicle had a full blown professional rotissere restoration done to it a few years back. The car has had only 2500 miles on it since this complete rebuild and restoration. The engine is a 70 cubic inch engine 1296cc 4cyl. That was professionally rebuilt. This engine produces 67 hp being an MK2. This vehicle reaches a top speed of 92 mph with getting 31 mpg. A fun car to drive that turns heads wherever you go. An outstanding automobile in every aspect. A great car for winding down twisting roads on a Sunday afternoon. Not only a vehicle you can enjoy it will continue to rise value. A great investment. The engine has been completely rebuilt and has aprox 2500 miles on it. The complete suspension and drivetrain have been gone thru and have many new components. This car was completely disassembled and gone thru with all parts being refurbished, replaced, painted or powder coated. Everything from the brakes to the dash gauges have been gone through. There are no disappointments. The underside of the car is as nice as the topside of the vehicle. The engine compartment, inside the trunk area and inside the doors all look like new. A lot of time and effort were put towards detail. The professional high quality workmanship shows throughout this vehicle. A very detailed piece of true art. The car is all red and the paint shines excellent. No issues of overspray or poor workmanship anywhere. You will find some aging of the paint due to the restoration being done back a few years. Nothing at all to take away from this gorgeous automobile. A vehicle that still turns heads and will win car shows. The body is a rustfree car that was always in great shape and extremely straight. This was not a vehicle in poor shape that was poorly done. I can gurantee that!!! This vehicle is extremely nice and well kept. I can not stress enough how nice this automobile is and should be seen to appreciate. You can bid on this car with complete confidence. An amazing little sports coupe. The inside of this vehicle is very clean and looks like new. The seats have been redone. The carpet is new and the dash is absolute gorgeous with the woodgrain, gauges and this is the hard to find model with the glovebox. You will be impressed. This car is comfortable and spacious for it's size. A very fun car to enjoy. The top comes off without much trouble and you can run the convertible down. A great looking car either way as you can see in the pictures. The chrome all is in very nice shape and accents the red quite well. Truly no other color for a sports car than Red...It sure gets noticed. If your in the market for a small Sports car do not dismiss this car. It is a real nice investment quality automobile that will provide you with an excellent investment and truly a lot of fun. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me. I will be glad to answer any of your questions. I have a clear title ready to transfer. Once again if at all possible I would appreciate you taking the time to view this car in person so you can realizie how clean and well kept this vehicle is. A great running vehicle that is sure to impress the crowd. An excellent choice for an investment quality automobile.
