1979 TRIUMPH SPITFIRE 1500 (OVERDRIVE) - RESTORATION PROJECT For Sale

1979 triumph spitfire 1500 with overdrive gearbox.

this car has been off the road for several years and is now in need of restoration. The engine does run, however the clutch is seized so it will not drive. It would make a great project, particularly as it is fitted with the much rarer overdrive transmission.

there is a quantity of receipts for parts etc. Dating from the 1990s, suggesting that it may have been undergone some restoration work at that time along with old mot certificates.

please contact me on the details below if you require any further information, additional images or would like to view the car. This is a restoration project, so i encourage you to come and see it and assess it's condition for yourself.

the car is located in manchester m28.
