I was driving through one of the less fashionable parts of town today and happened to see two Spitfires and a Midget parked in front of a real "shade tree" garage. The guy who runs the place, Willie L., said he'd worked on all kinds of British cars. When I told him I was dropping a V6 into an Alpine, he said, "Yeah, that's what's in that yellow Triumph. German V6 out of a Capri." We raised the hood and sure enough. Pretty interesting conversion and lots of room to work in there because of the configuration of the Spitfire's front end. Even with a two barrell and stock intake manifold, I'll bet that sucker could fly. It was pretty rusted out otherwise. I'll probably be towing my car over there eventually.
