The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

Just thought I would add a few picture of the journey from Scarborough to Warrington the other day.

I thought this was quite a cool looking car to be honest.





This was an interesting sign I saw

'Highest motorway in england 372m (1221 feet)'



This was by far the picture of the day!! Sorry about the poor quality this is what you get when your trying to catch up to a car and take a picture at 80+ mph, was well worth it though as it sounded absolutely amazing! Was defiantly 'Shifting for its age'



All in all it was a great day:')

Things are looking good! Just managed to buy a scrap dolly from (youpullit) in york. Its a 1500hl automatic so we will be able to put the original size engine back in, we are getting all the spare including the twin front headlights to go onto our dolly. So keep an eye out for photos in the next few weeks, also when we have dont we will also have a lot of spares including a full dashboard and interior if anybodys interested.

Are you going to put the auto gearbox in your car then Louis?
I know it wouldn't be original,but a 1500 non HL auto is quite a rare car.

James

Yeah that's what we are planning on doing atm.

Front wings look ok to me, can you post a picture of where they are bad?

Its in the bottom corners that they have been filled with loads of gobber from the previous owner, i will try get some photos of the worst parts.

looks great

are you going to keep it red?
