The stage that I'm at at this time. Getting stuff torn down. First time have ever gone this far on a car, so should be interesting. Cleaned all the carpet and refurbished dash, arm rest, top and painted other parts, water pump housing, thermostat housing, and etc. Working on heater at this time.

Will probable only be posting pictures and maybe a few comments as I go along. I think it is in pretty good shape, hardly any rust at all.

Was at a Fair in Washington August 8th, 2011 and down the street from the daughters house was a car under a cover, just sitting there. Kept passing by it for the next 4-5 days, told the wife I should stop and see what it was. Was getting ready to leave Washington and come back to Idaho, drove by that covered car again, so stopped to see what it was. It was the Spitfire. Knocked on the door and asked the gal if she wanted to sell it. She said Yes. Went back up the following weekend and towed it home. So here will be the beginning of the project to give to the grandson.
