Triumph Repair: rebuilt engine, triumph spitfire 1500, vintage triumph

Question
Aloha,
I live in honolulu hawaii and need a rebuilt engine for a 77 triumph spitfire 1500 that I'm restoring as a gift for my wife.  I want to give her the car as a christmas present.  Do you know a place where I can get one that will ship to Hawaii?

Answer
Kelly,

I'm sure that several of the vendors listed on the Vintage Triumph Register Website (www.vtr.org) will be happy to ship a rebuilt long block to Hawaii.  I don't know if you'll be happy with the shipping charges, but that is a separate issue.

If you can't find one to ship to you I'll volunteer to personally hand carry a longblock to Hawaii, as long as room and board are included.  Ok.. just kidding.


Cheers,

Jim
