My 1980 Triumph Spitfire:
My Spitfire Projects
I've done a lot of work on the car since I first put it on the road,
everything from exhaust to carburator to interior. You can read the
brief story of my particular car here(eventually, computer ate the first copy), or a little about Spitfires in
general on wikipedia. The links below show some of my progress and could be helpful to other Spitfire owners.

A special thanks goes out to all the people at TriumphSpitfire.com. The boards there are an invaluable resource for anyone working on a Spitfire, and I don't know where this project would be without them. Also worth thanking is Teglerizer.com, another incredible Spitfire resource.
My Pages
How to Choose a Spitfire:I've heard so many people ask what year or type of spitfire to get, I thought the subject deserved a page.
Useful Links

Many more to come as I think to put them up.
