This is a solid bodied, running and driving Spitfire. This car was bought through an auction and was purchased as a flood salvage car. I bought two cars to build one good one. It has been sitting in a barn for the last year as I have not taken the time to start the project. We are moving and it must go. This is mechanically the better of the two cars. The engine runs well, starts easily and runs smoothly. The overdrive transmission shifts to all 4 gears and reverse. I have not driven the car fast enough to engage the overdrive. Brakes and clutch are functional. Steering is stiff. Tires are decent and the rims are good. Speedometer and tach both function. Lights and wipers work. Rear shocks were damaged and I removed them. Trunk and floors are solid. There was a trunk mount luggage rack that had been removed prior to me getting the car. Glass is all good. Soft top is fair. Foam is deteriorating in the seats and interior will need to be redone. Mechanically the car will need some attention; however it is a very good car to rebuild, as without too much effort, it could be a good driver.

Jaguar F Type V6 S vs Triumph Street Triple R in open-air track attack

Sun, 21 Sep 2014

Typically, these track battle videos pair up car against car or, in more disparate circumstances, car versus crossover, as we saw the other day. While the outcome of that battle was quite predictable, what'll happen when an equally fetching (and fast) four-wheeler is put up against one of the icons of the two-wheeled world? Evo just had to find out.
Matching up a Jaguar F-Type V6 S Convertible against a Triumph Street Triple R is at least more of an even fight than the last battle between the Porsche Cayman GTS and Macan Turbo. The Triumph has a 675-cc engine to work with, and is very light. Meanwhile, the Jag has a thumping 380-horsepower, 3.0-liter, supercharged V6 to haul about it's considerably heftier heft. Who will come out on top?
You'll need to watch the full video to find out.
