Summary
This modified Spitfire 1500 features a 1.5-liter inline-four with a TS Imported Automotive camshaft, dual SU carburetors, and a lightened flywheel, paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Notable equipment includes a Le Mans–style fiberglass clamshell hood, Autopower four-point roll bar, GT6-sourced seats, and 13″ GKN wheels. The car is offered at no reserve with proceeds benefiting Lemons of Love, though note that the speedometer, odometer, and fuel gauge are currently non-operational.
