1966 triumph spitfire car

Vehicle Description

The Vibe (read this first)

This ’66 Spitfire is pure, lightweight, analog fun—raw 1966 feel with the confidence of modern brake assist. That combo = more fun, less stress. Add the fighter-plane paint, and it pulls more attention than six-figure exotics. It’s not about flexing money; it’s about smiles, waves, and stories.

Fire it up, put it in first, and watch heads turn.

What Makes It Special

Minimalist fresh wiring: I pulled most of the old loom and built a new, essential-only “spaghetti” setup. Not show-pretty. All function. No junk.
Miata brake booster: Pedal feel like a modern car. Stops hard, inspires confidence, multiplies the fun.
Wild “Spitfire fighter plane” livery: Done by a previous owner. Absolute crowd magnet.
Small, light, cheeky: It’s cute and quick-feeling, not pretentious—and it steals every parking-lot crowd.

Condition Snapshot (driver-grade, honest)

Runs/Drives/Stops: Yes—easy to start, easy to enjoy.
Electrical: New minimalist wiring, functional; not a concours harness.
Interior: Raw. No roof. Seats have holes, seams opening, foam crumbling—but still comfortable to cruise.
Paint/Body: Driver quality. Up close you’ll see flaws; from 10 feet it’s a stunner.
What it could use next: Cosmetics (upholstery, interior tidy, wire dressing if you’re picky). Or drive it as-is and enjoy the attention.
