1964 Triumph Spitfire Mark 2. The commission number indicates that it's
an original 1964 Spitfire 4 Mark 1 built in September 1964, but the
intent was for the restoration to include the Mark 2's larger and more
powerful version of the 1147 cc engine. Therefore, the four vehicles
(eventually combined into one car over nine years) were restored into a
Mark 2 model. The Los Angeles, CA dealer's invoice was used to add all
of the factory-installed "special orders" as well as the
dealer-installed "options." Originally purchased in 1980 the car was
completed in 1989, including seven patient years of waiting until a tub
without holes was located - in Wisconsin from a guy named Glenn Miller
who delivered it the bed of his pickup truck to Massachusetts for an
extra $100. The rarest item, which required 27 years of searching, are
the period-correct rear mudflaps!
