Triumph Spitfire 1500 Overdrive – March 1978 | Excellent Condition | Restored
An excellent example of a show standard or daily driver Triumph Spitfire 1500 with overdrive. First registered March 1978, owned by me for 3 years and the previous owner since 2017.
Refinished in its original colour and benefitting from a high standard professional restoration, the car presents beautifully with excellent bodywork throughout. The chassis is solid, completely rust-free, and structurally sound following a full body restoration carried out by the previous owner.
Interior trim is neat and tidy with good carpets and dashboard.
Mechanically, the car is in superb order. The engine starts instantly and runs exceptionally evenly, with one of the smoothest gearboxes and a fully working overdrive

Electronic ignition
Green stuff front pads, rebuilt rears with new cylinders & shoes
New flexi pipes all round

I finally plucked up the courage to buy a Stag so with a recent further addition to the garage, it’s time for this lovely example to find its next enthusiastic owner.
A well-sorted, usable classic in excellent condition. Ready to enjoy.
