So this one’s stumped me a bit, because it has the grille from a Spitfire Mk. II (’65-’67), but no rear Mk. II badging as one would expect, indicating that perhaps it’s a Mk. I (’62-’64) with a Mk. II grille. But it also doesn’t have the Triumph logo up front that would be expected on either car. The final clue is that the registration sticker on the license plate says 1964, which is what I’m going with. But it also has quad exhausts (definitely not stock), so who knows. (EDIT: We’ve found someone who knows: it’s a ’63. Thanks, Eric!)

I Know!!! , I Know!!!! That is a 1963 Spitfire 4 running a 1296cc engine out of a MKIV with a single weber 40 DCOE Side Draft, real magnesium Mini-Lites. The rear lights you didn’t notice were different are from a Triumph TR3. The quad exhaust is a Monza System. It is my fathers, he calls it “The Green Hornet” He has also created a recreation of the Macau Spitfire(check out the website below). Feel free to contact me if you want to check out the Macau
