My feeling is he just flat doesn't care about the spitfire and feels
its not really a Triumph. To him its just something the the Triumph
logo that needed to be listed to make a complete book.
An interested thing Fred Thomas mentioned to me was he felt they
would be almost as valuable as the TR3's some day. That could be
pushing it but its nice to know that some people appreciate these
cars. And after seeing pictures of Fred's TR3, I value his opinion.
