For Sale: 1979 Triumph Spitfire in Ft Worth, Texas

Vehicle Description

A proper British motor offers versatility, and this 1979 Triumph Spitfire 1500 comes with both a rakish black vinyl soft top and an orange fiberglass hard top for any proper English weather condition. The brilliant orange finish pays homage to racing Triumphs of old, enhanced by the purposeful stance of factory 13-inch Triumph wheels wrapped in 155/80R13 Kumho tires. From the iconic low-slung nose to the sweeping rear quarters, this Spitfire carries all the hallmarks of British sports car aristocracy.

The interior speaks pure British racing heritage with its fresh black houndstooth bucket seats positioned for proper sporting maneuvers. Traditional Smith gauges mounted in the wood grain dash panel broadcast vital information in true British fashion. The precise floor-mounted shifter falls naturally to hand, allowing its driver to enjoy the pure sporting environment.

The 1500cc powerplant, mated to a crisp 4-speed manual gearbox, produces authentic British performance in grand tradition. Racing-inspired engineering shines through with front strut suspension, complemented by a sway bar and independent rear setup with a mono leaf spring. Front disc brakes provide proper stopping ability, while the factory-style single exhaust produces that unmistakable British sports car soundtrack.
