75 Spitfire

75 Spitfire Becoming a perfect British Racing Green

For some people, cars are transportation; they are simply an asset to be used to get them from one place to another with the minimum amount of time and inconvenience. For other people, cars are a passion; a machine with a heart and soul that reflects their own personality as well as any inantimate object ever could.  Chris’s feelings towards his Spitfire is certainly not aligned with the “transportation” mantra.  He has owned this Spit for years and will never get rid of it.   The passion for Spits is in his family as well; his son owns the same era Spit and he also thoroughly enjoys pushing the roadster through windy back-roads and rural highways.  We will return this Spitfire to Chris before Christmas and know that he’ll be out zorching around this winter, eagerly awaiting the warm Spring soon to follow.
