Up for auction is a Mk1 Spit that has all the rare MK1 parts still intact. The car can be driven with some minor engine work. Carbs need tuning and fixing up but it the engine does run. Currently running rich. Transmission shifts and brakes work as well as all lights / horn etc. So with some work and a new battery this car could be put on the road and driven or it can be restored over the winter. The car looks great from 10 feet but does have the typical areas starting to appear via bubbling in the paint. Floors are solid but replaced before me via flat sheet.

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack
Sun, 21 Sep 2014Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
