The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

I have a May 76 P that I bought as my daily car 33 years ago and it is definitely original and a round hazard switch dash. It is a few numbers short of VA15,000 too, so I suspect as Alan intimates, the second series started around the April/May time 76. It had 18 owners in the 15 years before I ...

From the discussion it seemed as though twin 48's have been put onto a reasonably stock motor - so yeah worth checking and probably coming back to twin 40's or 45's - my hunch is that it will be fine then.

It looked like a good car Alun - reminded me a bit of that Moose car I had all those years ago and the experience we had separately with the Pink Minor guy on the South coast 20 years ago! I digress!

Hi - I telephoned the previous owner to give him some advice as I did not really wish to buy the car (I own some ex works cars and have had approaching 100 Sprints in my time - sad disease, I know!!!!) and went through the specification of the engine as far as he knew it, and the symptoms he had ...

CKV was scrapped in February 2009 sadly. FRW, RDU, SOE & MYX are all alive and well.

I have used the ones from EBay twice on two different works cars which get thrashed and never had an issue. Nice to know the club does them too.

pm sent for one. Ta

As long as fits Sprint engine, I will have one too please. Ta

I tried to contact a while back when one of the cars was for sale - heard nothing either, so be interested if they are still active if you find out. Ta

I owned this car too for some time. We repainted it those original Bmc colours and then after a few years sold it to a guy who bought our touring car replica, which I have seen racing in South Africa on web I think. If you want any help with HRCR please let me know as have the GP2 works SOE8M and we ...

Hi - Looks like you are doing a good job to the car. I suspect the engine had been swapped since I had the car (that was 10 years or so ago). It did several rallies before I had it too. It was already Damson & Cream and the 'funny' colours were in fact BMC colours from late sixties/very early 1970's ...

Thanks Alun

Shaun - I explained what happened at the time - someone I was with had personal issues to deal with and we had to go - I did not have your number with me. I don't like being misrepresented as if I am disingenuous - anyone who knows me will tell you that's not true. I appreciate you were disappointed ...

Do know where this should go on here, but might be worth a look, as could help save a lot of venues.

The chap there is called Nigel and he says he ex Blydenstein. He does Getrag gears but would not sell me just gears, wanted to build box for me which did not suit. I have not met him or bought anything from him. Checked companies house and returns are up to date for beginning of this year. Both his ...
