1980 Triumph Spitfire 1500

Here is an absolutely beautiful, all original 1980 Triumph Spitfire 1500 convertible that is truly one of the finest in the world. This car only has 9,901 pampered original miles on it. It spent many years in a private collection in California and in Arizona, and has been in climate controlled storage in FL for last 5 years, so the car is totally rust free. It has always been well stored, taken care of and maintained and it shows. This car is as close to showroom new as your going to find one. It was ordered with the only two options you could get on a Spitfire, which are a hardtop and overdrive. The car still even retains its original window sticker, owner's manual and dealer sale brochure. This is a super desirable Inca Yellow car with a black and white hounds tooth interior and it is completely all-original. It is optioned identical to the last Spitfire built in 1980 which sits in the British Motor Heritage museum. The car is near flawless and looks like it just came off the showroom floor. The car is believed to have a storied history, with owners including an actress in Hollywood and a doctor/surgeon in the Napa Valley. The second to last owner was a serious car aficionado with an extensive collection of cars in the Scottsdale area. The car has excellent rubber and beautiful crystal clear glass. It has all original decals and rubber bumpers. The original black soft looks like new with its original black top boot. The car spent much of its life in California, although the original window sticker shows that it may have been initially shipped to the Midwest. The BMH certificate says it was destined for California.The car runs and drives like new. This Spitfire is completely stock, numbers matching and very well maintained. It has its original 1493cc Inline 4cyl engine with a 4-speed transmission and option overdrive.
