Just thought I'd throw up my newest project. Going for a full factory restore. Sure it'll take forever as usual but parts are cheap and by far the easiest thing I've ever worked on.

It's a 1980 Triumph Spitfire 1500. 1.5 liter with 4 on the floor. Most fun I've ever had driving a car and in the 24 hours of ownership, I've been stopped at least 6 times to talk about it to strangers. Plus I can't beat it for the $1100 price tag and gets ~30-35mpg.
