Congratulations, Jim! The photo looks *sweet*. I had the same car (white)
for many years. Really enjoyed it. Especially after the electric fuel pump
fixed my constant vapor-lock problems. (Texas summers were murder before
that.)
I assume that you've read David Bedard's story about buying an old spitfire?
It's required reading for first-time Spitfire buyers. (I've got a copy of
it here: http://www.automate-it.com/lee/spitstory.html )
