My 73 Spitfire was my first proper car (I don't count my sister's
cast-off Fiat I owned for 9 months before that). It now has a 2.5 litre
straight six in it, basically a TR6 engine without the petrol injection.
Original seats but a Cowon iAudio A3 playing prog-rock FLACs through a
modern CD player. Can't hear the music for the damn loud sports exhaust,
but who cares!
I must sample it and use it in a track some day, but Green Spitfire
doesn't have quite the same ring to it as Red Barchetta...
