British Kit Car On Triumph Spitfire Running Gear on 2040-cars
United States
Your are bidding on a non-functioning
derelict glass fiber British kit car (Moss, 4 seater Malvern model),
with 1500 Triumph Spitfire engine and running gear. Could be
restored, or might make an interesting electric car project. Moss are
kit cars with mainly Ford and Triumph donors, built between 1981 and
the early 90's, but other engines and drive trains have been used,
such as the Mazda RX7. This one was built 1989-1991 by current owner and as far as is known, the only example in North America. There were approx. 350 of the Malvern model produced. More details of the cars and history can be seen at http://www.mossownersclub.org.uk/malvern.html. Unfortunately, this car slipped the handbrake and rolled down the driveway into a tree, so a low impact front end collision, but it was enough to demolish the cowling and radiator grille, and bend some of the front end bars. Canadian title. No reserve, as-is, where is in Northern NJ, exit 12 on I80, near Delaware Water Gap.

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.
