Cabin vibration from stop

Hi all

Did the 10CR in “The Deuce” (it’s brown) a 1500 fwd now sporting a Sprint drive line. Imported it to the states. Drove another 750 miles to get it home. Somewhere toward the end of the trip home, I noted a severe cabin vibration from start. Once underway it’s gone. During an alignment I ...

Re: New Member across ye olde pond

Good news, the Dolly is making its way from Italy to the Netherlands. Once there I’ll get with its keeper re body work and the all so important brake upgrade.

Oh it’s official, got my Team Torpedo shirt. 10CR 2022 here we come

Re: New Member across ye olde pond



Verified it’s titled as 1500. At least I’ll have a story. I believe the color is Sienna. Of the browns, it’s the one I like the best.


That would make sense and also account for the more reasonable cost. From your viewpoint it's a win/win, you get a great driving car with the power and fun of ...

Re: New Member across ye olde pond

Very tempting indeed. I do like the Webasto roof, but the autobox would have to go. We have an PI TR8 with the BW 3-speed Automatic. Also geared lower. Very ho hum to drive unless sitting in traffic or long TRips on interstates. Plenty of those here in the states. I’d change it to a 5-speed but it ...

Re: New Member across ye olde pond

Thanks Steve great info and since I’m all about having Fun rather than worrying about concourse, I think this could be the car for me. Make it go AND stop faster. There is a Sprint over here that I drove. Was gonna trade for my TR6 but the car needed body & paint work. I’ve read Dolomites can suffer ...

New Member across ye olde pond

Hi there

While being overserved after a run in the states, I may’ve been talked into joining the group from the states endeavoring in the 10CR in 22.

One of the cars is a Sprint converted from a 1500 front wheel drive that I’m considering (strongly) buying after the fun. I’m very familiar with ...
