Description

A fully restored Spitfire in outstanding condition.

HISTORY
A very interesting car and not one for the purist! The owner decided to make his own bespoke Spitfire – this involved purchasing a completely rust-free California tub and chassis (the US license plate comes with the car) to ensure a rust free restoration and also to take advantage of the more robust US spec chassis. In the UK two cars were sourced – a later P reg car and an L reg car, on which the car now is registered. All the best bits were used from these cars (including the bonnet) to make the near perfect example you see here. Amazingly this car was restored 14 years ago, and still remains in top-class condition which it’s pile of show trophies attest to. We have a folder of notes and invoices detailing the restoration process and a pair of CD Roms and actual photos too. The interior was made to order, including the beautiful wooden dash and dials, seats, centre armrest and tonneau with green piping, wooden steering wheel and bespoke door cards. Wire wheels were sourced to finish the look, along with using chrome embellishments as opposed to later, matt black items. The engine and gearbox have been rebuilt and the car drives beautifully. The car has been well maintained since restoration with invoices to prove. No MOT as the car is exempt, but a new test can be performed for the next owner if required. Recently valued by Club Triumph at £17, 000.

SPECIFICATION
British racing green with black seats with green piping, chrome wire wheels with a full-size chrome wire wheel, wooden steering wheel, bespoke dashboard and dials, stainless steel exhaust, roof tonneau cover and full tonneau cover, wheel knock-off tool and brass hammer, metal gear knob. Rare ‘glovebox’ spot-light. Overdrive is present but not operational (we are working on it!)

CONDITION
In stunning condition all-round, seats are excellent, wheels are perfect, roof is in wonderful condition, paint is glossy and dent free and there is no rust present anywhere on this car. Toyo tyres all-round with plenty of tread, glass is excellent, under the car is as good as the top and the engine area presents beautifully as does the boot, with carpet and spare wheel cover. The interior is in fabulous shape and the wood is beautiful on the dash and top of the door cards. The only flaw is some light tarnishing to the front bumper. We have a huge file of invoices with photos, CD Roms, notes and invoices. This car is MOT, tax and ULEZ exempt.
