I don't think my Spitfire 1500 has run for 5, maybe 6 years.

My boy (now 6) are going to try and start it tomorrow. No better car to learn about car mechanics that a Spitfire.

Battery on charge. Its not seized and I think there's petrol in it. It was a runner so I see no reason why it won't start.

I vote YES.

PS - no pics - I bought the car 13 years ago to do it up - TR6 arrived soon after so I've never spent anytime on it. Looks the mess it did the day I bought it, but its one of the most solid Spits I've ever seen.

clogged with varnish, but I see no reason for it not to fire up if it ran when you parked it. Unless the rats ate the wiring, that is!
