Vehicle description
Up for auction is my brothers 1978 Triumph Spitfire. He bought the car not taking into account his 6"4 build and can"t comfortably sit in the car so he"s asked me to sell her for him. She"s a well taken care of car as you"ll see in the auction photos and in the description. Have a service history / file going back to the 90"s on the car. If your looking at this auction then you know a car in this nice of condition is a deal. Mechanicals: The car runs and sounds great. Starts right up with no issues, smoke or ticking noises. Recent tune up, Spark plugs, oil change and air filter replaced.
