Do you crave a vehicle that’s the opposite of what you drive on a daily basis? Do you desire something that’s small, simple, and devoid of computers? Does the idea of a classic British roadster appeal to you? If so, consider this 1974 Triumph Spitfire that’s done a mere 48,100 miles in its lifetime. The Spitfire was introduced in 1962 and went through five generations until 1980. This car is a Spitfire 1500, which was the last generation. Furthermore, this numbers-matching car has undergone a full restoration, making it near-factory fresh and waiting to be enjoyed.
Wearing a beautiful coat of green metallic paint, this 1974 Triumph Spitfire is truly something to behold. The car stands just 48 inches tall and comes in at a very garage-friendly 145 inches long. It’s also a mere 57 inches wide. Yes, this car will make a modern subcompact hatchback look gargantuan. We’re told that the car sports a new frame, a new black convertible top, new wheels, and new tires. There’s also a cargo rack atop the trunk lid, as British roadsters don’t offer the most capacious cargo compartments. The interior of this 1974 Triumph Spitfire is a pleasing affair, upholstered in tan, with two leather seats, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, and a wood-trimmed dashboard. The driver receives comprehensive instrumentation, including a prominent speedometer and tachometer directly ahead of the steering wheel. There’s also a heater to keep you warm on chilly days. While this car is mostly period-correct, it’s got a small surprise in the shape of the sound system. You’ll discover an Alpine head unit with CD playback and Bluetooth capabilities, hooked up to new Phoenix Gold amplifiers and new Polk Audio speakers. Hence, you can relax with some choice music after a blast down some of your favorite back roads on a quiet weekend morning or evening.
Pop the hood of this 1974 Triumph Spitfire, and you won’t find a V8 or even an inline-six. Nope, this car uses a diminutive 1.5-liter 4-cylinder powerplant to propel it along. But don't let its small capacity fool you; with its lightweight body and agile handling, this roadster can offer the kind of driving experience other cars dream of. We’re told that the engine has been rebuilt and packs less than 2,000 miles since then. Drive is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual gearbox. Meanwhile, an aftermarket exhaust system uplifts the driving experience, amplifying that characteristic rorty sound that British roadsters are renowned for. A new battery and new wiring have also been installed in this beautiful British roadster.

With a name derived from a fearsome World War II fighter plane, Triumph’s Spitfire is certainly a darty, spunky thing, just like its namesake, the Supermarine Spitfire. Produced between 1962 and 1980, the Triumph Spitfire is one of Britain’s most iconic roadsters of the time, and is a much-loved model in many countries.

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.
Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.
Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
