1981 Spitfire F/S

Post by 427cobra »

Well I decided to put my Spitfire up for sale. Wasnt planning on selling...but decided I need the garage space.

Ive gone through this sled front to back and its in Great Shape!

I have to think it was a low mileage sled when I got it (no speedo) It showed very little wear.

I rebuilt the motor with new seals and gaskets. I also pressure tested the motor and it checked out just fine.

I had it running and runs/idles nice.

-track is near perfect
-new fuel lines/filter / added on/off valve
-suspension has been painted and grease zerks added! No more frozen shafts... :beers;
-exhaust has been blasted with fresh hi-temp paint
-NOS gauges
-new wear bars
-New "Johns" seat cover and wood
-comes with a like new belt & a brand new belt
-tool kit and owners manual included
-Original JD cover (good for keeping dust off)
-installed new tail light assembly

The windshield does have some holes drilled in it towards the top....but no cracks
The hood is nice and had one crack that I repaired (turned out very nice)

Im probably missing something....any questions just ask!

$825 obo will take it home :letitsnow:
