MK1 TRIUMPH SPITFIRE 4   1963 1147cc

I HAVE OWNED THIS CARE SINCE 2007 AND IT HAS GONE THROUGH A COMPLETE BODY OFF RESTORATION STARTING WITH THE CHASSIS BEING ACID CLEANED/ REPAIRED AND THEN FULLY GALVANIZED. ALL OF THE SUSPENSION WAS REPLACED WITH NEW AND THE REAR LEAF SUSPENSION UPGRADED TO A SWINGSPRING.

THE 1147cc ENGINE WAS STRIPPED DOWN AND REBUILT WITH NEW PISTONS/RINGS/BEARINGS AND TIMING CHAIN AND A NEW CLUTCH FITTED.  

NEW BRAKE AND CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDERS AND CLUTCH SLAVE CYLINDER.

NEW BRAKE DISKS /PADS/SHOES.

FULL STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST SYSTEM.

THE ORIGINAL BODY TUB WAS SO FAR GONE THAT I HAD TO USE A MK3 TUB BUT THIS DOES HAVE THE ADVANTAGE OF HAVING A NEW FIXED IN DROP TOP RATHER THAN THE ONE THAT YOU NEED TO TAKE OUT AND STORE IN THE BOOT.

THE TUB WAS RESTORED. NEW DOOR SKINS FITTED AND ALL RESPRAYED.

DYNAMO REPLACED WITH AN ALTERNATOR AND ELECTRONIC IGNITION FITTED

PLEASE BEAR IN MIND THIS WAS ALL DONE 6 YEARS AGO AND THE CAR IS NOT IN CONCOURSE CONDITION AND DOES HAVE SOME SURFACE RUST IN PLACES THAT COULD DO WITH A RUB DOWN AND REPAINT. SO HAVE A GOOD LOOK AT THE PHOTOS AND YOU ARE WELCOME TO COME AND VIEW THE CAR. BUT OTHERWISE A GOOD BODY ON A SOLID CHASSIS WITH GOOD RUNNING GEAR.  GREAT LITTLE CAR TO ENJOY IN THE SUMMER AND SPRUCE UP IN THE WINTER IF YOU FEEL THE NEED.


7 MONTHS MOT
