Actually, what Triumph did was push the radiator forward on the GT6.. the 6 cylinder is about a foot longer than the stock Spit 4. So imagine trying to fit a lump of cast iron 12 inches longer into

You're right, the legislation was proposed in the early 70s (the '76 Caddy was the last "traditional" American ragtop during the '70s) but never enacted. Most manufacturers saw what they thought was

On Spitfire 1500s I've seen two colors used, black (on my '73, looks original) and silver (on a '74 parts car). This is with the block painted black. Both Midget engines ('75 and '76) have had the o

The first step is to box the o/d up and ship it to me! :-) It's a question of which Spitfire o/d tranny you go for. If it's a J-type then you'll probably have to have the drive shaft shorted. It it'
