Sounds like your starter solenoid/connections have toasted.
You might be able to remove the heavy wires that connect to
the battery & starter motor from the solenoid, and clean/
repair them. The fact that you have no spark suggests (to me)
that the solenoid may need to be repaired. I'm assuming this
is a "later" Spitfire with ballasted ignition.
Hope this helps,
