Hi Guys,

Re-joined TSSC after about 40 years absence (no internet then!). Still got same car, Spitfire Mk3, which I have started rebuilding to hopefully finish late next year. Look forward to texting you all over the coming months and years.

Cheers,

George

Welcome back! Any chance of a photo diary of your Spit 3? Friend of mine has been working on his for around 10 years now and has missed every deadline he's set himself, so would be good to shame him into activity!

Welcome back, and good luck with the rebuild

Welcome!

A lot of us with the same story! Bought mine in 1978.

A photo diary would be a good idea. My son wants the Spitfire when I kick the bucket so a load of photos would be a good addition to go with the car. So far I have purchased a complete set of poly suspension bushes, trunnions, and top suspension joints, new rear brake drums, brake pipes,  cylinders, adjusters, springs and shoes, new front callipers, drilled discs and pads, braided flexible hydraulic pipes, Mk IV rear spring and mounting box, front springs and top plate, Gaz shocks front and rear. I have reconditioned the steering rack and have new track rod ends. I have painted most of the suspension arms royal blue which contrasts nicely with the black chassis. I have a second hand MK3 engine which I will recondition as mine is clapped. Once I have a bit more done, my Geraniums are over-wintering on my work bench, I will upload some pics.

Cheers, George
