Here are a couple of pics of my 1962 Triumph Spitfire. I built the car about 20 years ago and it has been a blast. Way too much work!!! It has a tunnel ram 350 Chevy as you can see. There are also some pics as I was building it. I am in the process of building a 58 Morris Minor with a small block, I will send some pics of it when it is done.
