I found my GT6 by long distance, listed on a website, probably Spitfire & GT6 
Magazine's site (www.triumphspitfire.com), if I remember correctly, though 
perhaps elsewhere.  I emailed questions to the seller, he sent back pictures 
and explanations.  Eventually I spent some frequent-flyer miles to fly from 
Boston to Ohio to see the car.  It was exactly what the seller claimed.  Some 
months later by email we settled on a price and delivery details, and he 
trailered it to Boston.  So you could say that through I found it long 
distance, I bought it short distance.  I would never buy a car without seeing 
it, or at least never trust a seller until I or someone else I trust could see 
it.
