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. Today’s 1978 Triumph Spitfire 1500 comes from New Jersey and has traveled just 1,629 miles after what we suspect to be a restoration, given by how clean the car looks. If you’re a fan of British roadsters, know how to drive stick, and relish a good blast down a country road in an open-topped car, this is the perfect companion for you! Quick, DM or call us if you’d like to take it home and cherish it.

It's a common perception that to have fun behind the wheel, one must have a machine that's fast and precise. While that may be true, sometimes life is about slowing it down, savoring each turn, and taking in the views; the best car for the job? A classic British roadster. Built during the 60s, the Triumph Spitfire was as iconic as its name; it boasted a timeless design that can turn heads to this day and ensure decent performance on a twisty back road. Present today, in all its glory, is this lovely 1967 Triumph Spitfire Roadster; it's an unmistakably British classic roaster hailing from the Mark III generation, every angle and is geared towards a refined drive experience that makes you want to be behind the wheel all the time.
Ah, Triumph. One of those sadly defunct British sports car makers responsible for giving us some truly awesome pint-sized roadsters to drive enthusiastically. The British really got the whole less is more thing down to an art form during much of the 20th century. They perfected the recipe of small dimensions, modestly-sized but revvy engines and chuckable driving dynamics to a great extent. The Triumph GT6 was something a little more than your typical British sports car. For starters it was a proper, fixed-head coupe and it came with a straight six under the hood. That’s what we have for sale today, a 1973 Triumph GT6 from Clearwater, Florida. It’s got just over 33,000 miles, a 2.0-liter straight six, a manual gearbox and all the charm you’d expect from a classic British car. Why not make it your own, then?
One of General Motors’ most successful and popular A-body midsize cars, the Chevy Chevelle ran between 1963 and 1977, across three generations. It was offered in sedan, station wagon, coupe, convertible, hardtop and coupe utility forms. Back in the day, it was the default choice for many families who wanted clean, reliable and easy motoring, especially when you choose a station wagon. Now, some of these classics have become restomods, like this 1,242-mile 1972 Chevrolet Chevelle Concours Restomod LS3 from Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This spacious station wagon packs a 6.2-liter LS3 V8, an aftermarket sound system, a reupholstered leather interior and more goodies to make it sweeter on every drive. The car has reportedly been refreshed by Luce Customs.
The 1987 Ford Mustang GT Convertible represents the height of the Fox-body 5.0 era, a time when affordable American V8 performance dominated the streets and the “5.0” badge became a cultural icon. The 1987 refresh brought updated aero styling and improved cylinder heads, helping the High Output 302 earn its legendary reputation. This example shows over 104,000 miles and comes accompanied by a Marti Report, offering documented authenticity and production details that serious collectors appreciate. Finished in Oxford White over a striking Scarlet Red interior and paired with a 5-speed manual, this convertible captures the pure, analog driving experience that defined late-1980s muscle, delivering the unmistakable look, sound, and feel that made these cars instant classics.
Nothing beats the experience of cruising around town in a classic first-generation Ford Mustang Convertible. Imagine what buyers must have felt like back then? Ford’s hit pony car was literally flying off the showroom floors. For the first full production year, 1965, Ford sold over half a million! This 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible is one of them, and it’s now available to purchase in Jacksonville, Florida. With just under 40,000 miles, this pony packs a nice 302 under the hood, paired with power steering and a front disc brake conversion for better stopping prowess.
