Exactly. All depends on how badly smashed. New panels are available, though. Lots of "clean up and replace"; that is, clean up the ignition system and make sure it's set properly (static timing for n

Couldn't resist hunh? I thought enough of us had told you to keep looking, but as my wife says, "he's got the bug, don't you remember?" Okay, for starters, get all the manuals you can. Read as much

Jack and Ed, While Moss is great for the TR range and '71-on Spits, they will be absolutely no help with your early Spit. I have encountered behaviour from Moss sales reps that borders on hostile whe

I'll agree with Andy, don't skimp on parts. Get the best you can afford. It's actually cheaper in the long run. The '4' does stand for 4 cylinders used only on early Spitfires, and had led to some ru

HI all, I second Mike's statement about MOSS and "early" Spits. When I first started working on my car I called MOSS and the sales person was very rude. I guess "early" Spit money dosen't spend as w

have is more of a piece of history, than an automobile. I also have a 65 Spit. Bad body etc. I put in an uprated 1500 and late model transmission. An abomination to the true restoationists. But I fi

Let me get this straight. You bought a Spitfire with frame problems, in need of major body work, with an engine that doesn't run? Against the advice of almost everyone on the list?.....Are you inter
