I found this on the net today and being new to the idea of actually having
a british car I thought I'd get some expert advice.  How does this sound?  Are
there special items to be aware of if I go to look at it?  Thanks for the help.

FOR SALE:

        1977 Triumph Spitfire 1500 Convertable

        41,500 original miles, garaged since `86
        4-cyl, 1500.
        4-speed manual with electric overdrive.
        Original soft top, tonneau and boot covers
        Factory metal hardtop (removable).
        Color: Red with black interior (but needs paint)
        Walnut (real wood) dash

        New tires, battery and ignition coil
        New clutch & throwout bearing
        Roll bar
        Header pipe      (have NEW factory exhaust chamber)
        Dual SU carbs    (have original single Stromburg w/manifold)
        Koni gas shocks
        Luggage rack
        2nd owner, I've owned the car since 1979.
        Triumph shop manual
        extra parts, reciepts

Time has come to sell the ol'two seater!  I don't have the time,
desire or cash to "tinker"; the flame has died and I need the
cash!  This car, someday, will become a classic, one of the longest
running production cars Triumph made, 196? -> 1982.   The car is
all there but needs some TLC (like most Triumphs) to put a smile
back on it's face.  It was running in `86 but hasn't been driven
much since, although it is regularily started and had oil changes.
Above all, it's a Triumph.

                $1250 or cash ($???) offer, Please!
