The Triumph Spitfire was introduced at the London Motor Show in
1962. The Spitfire was designed as an open top or convertible
roadster from the outset and thus the chassis is reinforced for
additional ridgedity via structural components within the bodywork.
In 1970, the Mark IV model brought comprehensive changes. The rear
end was updated to resemble the Triumph Stag and 2000 models also
designed by Italian designer Giovanni Michelotti. The 1.3L inline 4
powerplant was rated at a 63hp. The engine displacement was
increased to 1493cc and 71hp. The 1980 model was the last of the
line and features included a wood dash, hazard flashers, electric
screen washer, map light and overdrive. This beautiful Carmine Red
/ Tan 1980 Triumph Spitfire is a one owner, numbers matching
survivor. The 1.5L powerplant is mated to a 4-speed manual
transmission. The entire package is set off by its original steel
wheels. This fine touring roadster is located at our Milwaukee
showroom. You can view this vehicle in greater detail including HD
