Default My old British sports car...Triumph Spitfire pics.

Im just really bored and me and my dad just recently finished "restoring" it. Mainly motor work. We put a lot of work into it so I hope a few of you out there like it. BTW, Its for sale .

me and my dad restored the complete shell of one for a guy. We painted it (Inside and Out) a real dark Maroon-ish color. It had a lot of depth to it. We had to replace and neutralize all of the rust on the body, including a bunch of the floorboard. They're great cars...and yours looks very nicely done. Keep up the good work.
