I am new at this, so bear with me.  How compatible are the GT6's and the spitfires.  What parts are interchangeable.  I just need a broad answer, not too detailed.
Thanks

Both are built on the same basic structure. However, other than the obvious 4 v 6 cylinders and convertible v. fixed-roof bodies, most bits aren't really "interchangeable" per se, but are similar and often can be switched between cars. In other words, it is not terribly difficult to upgrade a Spitfire with the brakes and suspension bits of a GT6, or even to install the complete 6-cylinder drivetrain in a Spitfire. But you can't simply bolt a GT6 gearbox into a Spitfire, for example.
