What's the difference
between a Spit6 and a CGT6 ???
Well...
actually there is a big difference! A few pathes that would produce one or
the other of these vehicles, can be quite challenging, while others, a simple bolt up.
Variations in bodywork styles over the years, lend slight mounting variations and frame
mount requirements that dieered of the various model styles (IE MKI. II, III 1500, for the
Spitfire and MKI, II, and III for the GT6.
First off..... two 'overly
simplified' definitions.
Spit6
Is the result of placing a Triumph (and
others*)
6 cylinder engine and driveline into a Spitfire chassis. This has varying degrees of
'completeness'.
Convertible
GT6
Is the result of placing a Spitfire tub on a GT6
chassis while retaining the features of the driveline and running gear of the GT6.
There are a lot of sub-catagories that also must be
defined. Those involving the variations that can be generated by mixing body work across
model years styles, rear suspension drive types, and bonnet styles.
