Parting out '78 Spitfire

Post by Matt »

I had purchased a Spitfire, but after seeing the condition of the belly pan/front end, decided not to salvage it. Let me know what you need. Highlights include a good engine, track, skis. New Sno-stuff windshield. Seat foam with the cover already removed. Bad stuff: chassis, hood, handle bar controls.

To anyone asking about the carb, sorry, it's a butterfly. Sale pending on engine & track.

I thought about it, but I'm not going to bother on this one. Needs too many parts. Thanks anyway.

The engine is still available, but I'll warn you that it's about 65 lbs so it's a heavy one to ship. Seat foam is also available.
