Unique 1964 Triumph Spitfire: “Resto-Mod Caf? Racer”

Reluctantly offering for sale my restored 1964 Triumph Spitfire 4. This car was completely restored and modified by a racing car fabrication shop in Colorado in the mid-2000s: Not a 'period-correct' restoration, but one which makes the car a unique and fun-to-drive example. The car runs flawlessly, all of the controls and switches work, and it handles responsively due to its upgraded suspension, oversize tires, and carbon-fiber floor panels and underbody. This car also attracts lots of attention at car shows. Perfect year-round daily driver for any resident of a small or medium-sized town - 25 mpg.

Carbon Fiber interior floor panels and underbody

Modified cooling system with radiator from 1980s General Motors car

Convertible Top and Tonneau Cover

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, 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.
