Long looked upon as the “entry level” Triumph, the Spitfire has been popular for a many years. Its popularity and affordability made it the longest running Triumph production (1962-1980) and the largest production numbers (314,332) of any Triumph produced.
The North American Spitfire Squadron (NASS) is sponsoring the ultimate tech session at the 2008 NORTH AMERICAN TRIUMPH CHALLENGE taking place August 4th-8th in Ypsilanti, Michigan. NASS members will be supervising a 48-hour rebuild of a 1963 MKI Triumph Spitfire.
Former NASS Membership Chair, Geof Bush, will be heading the team that will rebuild the Spitfire. Other NASS members planning to supervise the rebuild are John Gray, Dave Doehler, John Lamberg, Mark Jones, and Randy Joles.
Shift supervisors can't do the rebuild alone. Many more volunteers are needed for the rebuild team. We need more volunteers to work each shift. If you can know which end of a screwdriver to hold or know the difference between a spanner and a “roundy thing,” you are more than qualified and welcome to join in to assist. If you are interested in volunteering or have any questions, please contact Geof Bush at

Of course, for insurance reasons, you'll need to be registered for the NATC to participate. Full information about the 2008 North American Triumph Challenge (formerly known as the VTR National Convention) can be found on the event website at
