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.
