Gordon McClymont Posted July 18, 2023 Posted July 18, 2023 Triumph Spitfire 1500 1980 - US Federal Specifications. Vehicle was used in the US (Utah and California) 1980-1993 and was imported by the current owner to the UK in Mar 1993 (UK V.5 with ‘V’ suffix registration). Owned by the current owner from 1990 to date (33 years) and was last used on the road in UK in 1996. Last MOT 1995 – been in storage in barn and garage since. 44,000 miles and 99% original US federal specs with single Stromberg carb, front and rear ‘full’ impact federal bumpers, electric cooling fan with raked radiator (US cooling), front and rear wing lights/reflectors, overdrive, LHD and LH tonneau cover. The car has not been run since storage. The chassis is good/excellent the bodywork has the usual rust at the rear sills and some wheel arches and some localised body spot rust. The car is collision free and is a good candidate for restoration to a unique US model in UK or on European continent. Quote
