I have a ?77 Spitfire project that I?ve had for many years. I bought it used and what started as a rolling restoration ballooned into a frame off. I?ve come to the disappointing realization that it is highly unlikely that I will ever finish the car, hence I?m getting rid of it. A few specifics (I can certainly provide more if requested/needed) 87k miles on odometer. Car is mostly disassembled (engine and interior out), have parts/pieces for reassembly (including new carpet kit). Body work substantially complete with fresh paint, reconditioned frame. Engine ran before removal. Attached are a few photos. I?m hoping that a triumph enthusiast who may be looking for a good project might be interested. I?m intent on selling and will consider all reasonable offers. Thanks, Dave Jackel Sent from my iPad -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Steele Autobody, in Oakdale, does really nice work. Cecil Body Works, on rt. 50, in Cecil, is who I?d go to, if I needed a shop to do my paint work. Mike Sheridan (Cecil Body Works owner) painted a Porsche 356 that I reassembled, for a friend and did a beautiful job, especially with the hammer & dolly work needed on the nose panel. The paint job was flawless. Hope this helps!
