Hey all,

There's a cool Spitfire in the latest issue of British Car magazine,
on page 47 (I believe).  It's just a small article, about an
unrestored lightweight racing Spit - Le Mans or Sebring, I can't recall.

It's got the bonnet we've been talking about - the fibreglass one we
want to have fabricated.

It talks about how it was the inspiration for the body of the GT6.  It
had a fibreglass roof on it, and looked way cool.  It is unrestored,
and  owned by a gent in New York.  I don't know if it's still
campaigned or not.

I want one, I want one!  ;-)
