Going to go and see this:<br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/triumph-dolomite- ... <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <br>
<br>
on Saturday as it is local to me.<br>
<br>
Anyone want me to look at anything on there whilst I'm there?<br>
<br>
I can take photos and give an independent evaluation of parts, the owner is willing to post parts out.

No one else then?

Justyn, the seat belts are good 'uns 'Euroflexs' looked to be fine.<br>
<br>
Here are pictures of the car, I have removed all 4 doors and the rear sofit (bit with the vents in in the roof), the car is very solid and appears to been injected with wax when new, the engine is sweet as a nut and did not knock at all on start up (common on a 1300) it is fitted with a carb from a Metro. It has only done 78K miles.<br>
<br>
The car is an abandoned restoration, very solid, wish I had the time/space/money to finish, but we cannot save them all it seems. The owner is friendly and knowledgable about old cars and is happy to send part out.<br>

<br>
Front panel and front wings are in very good condition, bonnet is near perfect, some work has been carried out on the wing in primer to a very high standard. Bumper is a bit pitted.<br>

<br>
Front panel and wings are worth saving.<br>
<br>

<br>
What a shame ! <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START : --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br>
<br>
<!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6 ... Cct2TFq5c0" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br>
<br>
All seats looked good with no tears or lose stitching, but would benefit from a clean.<br>

<br>
This is the state of the car after I'd finished, sad I know and I do feel more than a bit guilty, but it will live on.

No, I would think they'd be a reasonable price.<br>
<br>
If you contact them through ebay I'm sure they will be quick to respond.<br>
