| “I purchased this Spitfire over 10 years ago. The paint was old but no rust anywhere. The engine/compartment was very dirty and parts broken and missing. The padding in the seats was in terrible shape and upholstery torn. Seat frames broken. So, after several years of work this car has had a major makeover. The engine runs a little rough until it warms up. You can see the changes in the “Item Description”. I am selling this car under an “As Is” contract with no warranty.” |

Vehicle description
This car is almost completely resotored with a few custom touches. If you want to drive something that is soooo much fun, then this is the convertible for you. I have shown this car in several shows and always get kudos for it’s look and make. It is strictly a sunshine car, but, I do have a brand new vinyl top that is not yet installed. Let me state that this is not a muscle car but way too much fun to drive. It’s a great rally car and there have been more rally wins in this style of car than many others in it’s class. (Just a side note that Mazda used the Spitfire frame and suspension as the original prototype for the Miata). The paint and body work is not professional quality but still looks great.
