THE SPITFIRE PROJECTS

In November 1999, for his 40th birthday, Tool Care Hire proprietor Martin Phillips was given a present of a single rivet from a Spitfire. With the rivet came a challenge to fulfil a childhood dream – build a Spitfire.

Martin and his team sourced parts from around the world to painstakingly rebuild a wonderful example of British engineering.

After 13 long years his restoration project MK IX Spitfire RR232 took to the skies over Bristol.

For the latest news on this, and other exciting projects, visit our project update page.
