[Fot] Spitfire rear suspension mods in Vintage racing

[Doug Mitchell]

Joe,

I don't know about the vintage sanctioning bodies, but PRI already sells an
IRS conversion
for the Spitfire. Around $1350US.

Do any of the vintage sanctioning bodies allow the rear swing axle setups to
be converted to a more conventional (like twin A-frame) type of suspension?
Or are you stuck with the swing axles?  I ask because the thought of
offering an upgrade  consisting of the lower control arm and split axles
with a CV joint has recently come to me.  If there is a reasonable demand, I
might explore further to see how much I could offer it for.

 

Racers could use it if it is not outlawed, but street cars might find it
attractive if it doesn't break the bank.

 

Thanks,

Joe C.
