i sat in the mk3 gt6 at last years classic show at the nec and really liked it. i prefer the mk2 shape, particularly the rear end is nicer. would be nice to get one slammed on some dished 6x13's and low profiles

Yep, I could cope with some of that.  Would more than likely want to put the running gear in a Herald instead though ;D |

the convertible ones are the spitties, the hard tops are gt6's.
Spitfires had a range of engines from 1100cc-1500cc and whereas the gt6's had the 2litre 6pot in them from standard!
Mk2's are by far the prettiest, my dad had a blue one when he was younger, which is what sparked my brother into getting one!

So to add to what junglist said it isn't exactly rocket science to put the six-pot running gear into a Spitfire or put a Spitfire body on a GT6 chassis. Or include 2.5 litres from a big saloon or TR in the mix  |

This is my mates ex hill clime MK1 Spitfire it is currently running a stage 1 1300 lump, but a stage 3 race engine is being prepared for the summer (the last one threw a rod) its very low and handles like a go cart ;D   I'd love a spit or a gt6, gt6 bonnet bulges are ace |
