WTS, Triumph GT6, Spitfire Mk. IV, and parts!
I really have "Too many" projects at this time.
To be "Rational" I should let a couple go and put the funds/time toward finishing some of the others. Already building a GT6/Buick 231 V6 and T5 car. This one was originally bought as spare parts, then I got a deal on loose body panels. Doubt I need three sets of body panels, frames, etc. So this Triumph GT6 is up for sale, no title but do have bill of sale naming the prior owner from decades ago. Certainly out of the Kalifornia DMV system by now. It is complete and original, but has sat a long time and has some rust in the body. Engine turns over but is certain to need a rebuild. Early swing-axle car, but I happen to have a GT6+ chassis and suspension that could go with it. Also the GT6+ body that has had the roof cut off but is nearly rust free. GT6 trans and diff's are pretty sought after as Spitfire upgrade parts so could be sold to off-set an engine swap. Want $2,000 for all the above, can dicker for less if I get to keep some of the above parts. Kind of planned to use the spare chassis for a Locost 7 build since I have a spare Spitfire engine and trans. Also have a Spitfire Mk. IV with all parts but the engine is out. Nevada title. Drove it home a few years ago but oil pressure read low. Never got around to the engine rebuild I planned. Body is very good and as I recall rust free. Got some dings in the top of the front fenders when wind blew the bonnet over. Interior is poor Engine has single Weber DCOE, I have a stock intake too. Want $1,500 complete but will consider less without the Weber, or even engine/trans. Also have spare Spitfire Engine with Weber DCOE and a few transmissions, might even part with the overdrive one at the right price, and a set of 13" wire wheels. "LBC's" are getting harder to find in decent shape, I know I will regret selling these as once they are gone they will impossible to replace. Will take pics when it cools off later today. Not pretty, if they were I would just put them on BAT. Located in Gardnerville, NV 89410 Fifty miles from Reno. |

Forgot to mention that the Spitfire includes a factory steel hard top that needs some refurbishing.
Good glass but the rubber is sunburnt. |

When it rains it pours!
Seems the property is now being sold out from under me. So prices are negotiable. |
