[TR] Anyone know this Spitfire?

[Brad Kahler]

What I do know from talking with the seller is the chassis, drive train,
and body work were all done by the shop in Georgia.  The interior work was
done by the seller which could explain the difference in quality.  I'm in
agreement that the price is probably double what it should be.  That issue
will be up to my friend to deal with, I'm just advising him on the quality
of work done.
