Used 1973 Triumph Spitfire for Sale near Hamilton, ON

Great fun car but took plenty of maintenance to keep it running. Small convertable with great handling. Could do a sharp left hand turn at 40 mph with no problem. The car could have used a little more power. The small carb on a 1.5 l engine was a little underpowered. The gearbox was not the best, tended to grind the gears on quick shifts.

Handling is fantastic, braking is also fantastic. The car only weighs 1700lbs so its performance handling wise is quite good. However power is lacking it maxes out at around 65ish (maybe) horsepower. Interior is good. Black leather seats, wood dash, Smith's gauges; it has it all. It has been said that "when you drive a spitfire, you remember how much fun driving is" nuff said.

i have allways loved these cars and still do. this has given me many hours of pleasure stripping it down restoring it. spending many hours in the garage. now my hard work has paid off. i get to enjoy it on nice sunny days. pure pleasure
