Registry: 1970 Triumph Spitfire MkIII

Ken Fowler's 1970 Triumph Spitfire MkIII
|
When I bought the car it was tired and worn, but with a couple of important new parts (transmission, master brake cylinder). Had quite a time at first tearing up clutch plates and finally after the third one found the problem was a warped engine/transmission plate. Once corrected it was no longer a problem.
Spent many summers driving the car and repairing it as needed. But, after awhile it was becoming costly and other things demanded my attention and money. It sat for a few years in my garage and then went off to Earl Moffat (a British car enthusiast
and mechanic). It's been in his shop for the last 5 years and is now nearly ready to hit the road again.
I will update the profile photo with a pic of my actual car soon and add all the numbers. Oh, and the car will not be pretty until next year when it gets painted. The cost of renovating a British sports car is daunting.
