The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

A good idea that Howard: when painting them blue (!) it crossed my mind that they might look good in a light 'biscuity-bronze', or similar.

..and a vinyl roof to match!!

I'm umming and aahing on both. The Formuling rear spoiler may make an appearance as it's quite a fun addition. There's no way I'll be drilling any holes though, rest assured. I've sent for some 3M samples to investigate attaching it with velcro or similar. Not sure yet.

The Autoplas is unlikely to fitted, don't worry interested parties, I'll let you know if I decide to part with it.

Oh yeah, the wheels have changed too...more next time...

Loving the back window slats


Wan't one for the toledo !!!!

It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.
Hit it.

Damn it! That was meant to be out of shot!

I'm restoring it Glenn as it being a nice enamel one it's more attractive than the placcy ones they Council have been putting up.

Oooo. Let me know how the 3m stuff works out! I soooo want Louvres!

Will do Rich.

Got this lined up for the car now, maintaining the Formuling theme:

Oo that's pretty!

I am loving the spoiler, any idea where I could get hold of one??

That is good
Loving the spoiler and the louvre
I have been after one for a while,seems it would make for an interesting auction!
Taff

Thanks for all the nice comments.

The louvre never fails to produce an opinion! I'm actually in the process of having one (a mould) reproduced, so there may not be a need for an auction after all...

If you manage to get them reproduced, you will have my eternal undying love...
Ok, maybe a bit strong...
