Triumph Spitfire Mk1 | eBay UK

Comm.No, FC65

It looks as if it's been buried since then, but according to Google the earliest surviving Spitfire is  FC316, which this beats by a lot!

That’s pretty rough….. Suspect many of the “rare early features” may be past saving, or even identifying!

Ha what a state.. Number plate will be worth a fair bit: 214 MOD

The 'I' is missing from the rear TR umph name letters

However you do get a free plastic funnel.

It looks... 'tired'

A few non original fittings on there like the sidelights and wood dash. But the petrol tank looks most unusual. The factory must have started off with a common pressing for the fornt and back and then realised that it needed an indent to reach the spring mount cover.

The plastic funnel sells it though
