Hi Laura - It was originally Carmine red, but is now a brighter shade. It's one of those 10 foot paint jobs - You know - looks pretty good at 10 feet but the closer you get the more flaws you see. I

More than I wanted to pay...$3700 (down from $4500 asking). When I started looking I was hoping to pay about 2. But 15 cars later I realized that at least in Southern California I'd probably be waiti

Or a 2k car with things like...seats? I know a guy who just sold a spitfire for $1700-but it hadn't an interior! Needed new paint, but it ran decently enough. Anyone checked out Hemmings lately? Pric

That was the confusing thing about trying to buy a Spit - There didn't seem to be much consistency in pricing. Kelly Blue Book (kbb.com) says in SoCAl that a reconditioned spit at a dealer should sel

Any one in the UK who saw Deals on Wheels today (I did tell you last week) would have seen that chap sell a very good condition, but modified 1980 Spitfire 1500. He got 4000 pounds cash for it! Which
