Original
1976
Triumph
Spitfire 1500
We are the second owners of this great car. Included is the "original" window sticker, and all paper work when purchased in 1976. This car has been maintained lovingly for it's entire life.
The "upgrades" the car has been given are very minor, and are easily converted back to "original". All the work has been to make her more reliable and easy to maintain and drive. Every effort has been given to maintaining as stock as possible look and feel and the removal of as little as possible of the stock components. All original stock parts removed are included with the sale (except the rear leaf springs, they were shot) Other then the following list of upgrades, This car is "bone" stock, right down to the original tool kit and jack in the trunk.
Recently the car has had the following done:
New tires
New shocks
New Brake pads
New "performance" upgraded front springs, and rear leaf springs
New battery
Weber DGV 32/36 Carburetor with water heated choke and intake.
Holley electric fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator
Electric Cooling fan and Thermostat
GM 60amp Alternator
AM / FM / CD with Ipod control
Other then what is mentioned above the car is original and in great shape for a 37 year old car. The paint is the original "Maple" and is starting to show wear on the hood. (small chips, and cracks) but still looks great for her age. The floor pans and trunk pans are solid and show no rust. (there is 2 tiny, smaller them a dime size, rust bubbles just starting behind the rear wheels that will need attention, see pics)
The top is in very good condition, No rips or tears, but the window stitching will need attention soon, (see pics)
Fun to drive, easy to maintain, and reliable. That was the goal with this car and it is true to form. We recently drove her over 5000 miles to Bonneville and back and she never once disappointed us. Good gas mileage, comfortable, and reliable.
No issues at all, ready to drive home.
As I stated, Everything that was "original" and removed was saved and boxed. I have a large box with many, many, spare parts, including all the removed parts and many spares. Spare bulbs, filters, ect. Manuals and all paperwork associated with this car are ready for the new owner.
YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPOINTED!!!
(this car is not a garage or trailer queen, this is a daily driver, and as such she not in "PERFECT SHOWROOM" condition. This is an excellent example of a 37 year old, properly maintained British Sports Car)
If you need anything else, or more pics, please let me know via email, text, or call: 731 358 5726
I will make every effort to help the new owner in delivery or shipping.
