 Post subject: 1977 dolomite
PostPosted: Wed Dec 11, 2013 11:08 pm 
Hi, this is my 1977 dolomite that I was given a few months back. This is my first car which I will be slowly be doing up when I have money to fix her up. I don't know the mechanical side to cars, so this is a big learning curve fore too, fortunately for me, I work at a boat yard with a very large workshop and people who have worked on Dolomites in the past, so I have people to point me in the right direction. The last owner has informed me that the reason he stopped driving the dolomite is because the solenoid had broke but I have already ordered a new Lucas solenoid, I just need to swap them over and see if I can get it running. Will appreciate any help or advice given. Thanks for looking.

That is great! I think white is a cracking shade for the Dolomite...

That numberplate is indeed superb, you'll always have an MOT at the very least!!!

I think you'll find that this is the perfect car for a 'novice' to tinker with and/or restore. I am sub-novice and I manage alright!

Do keep us posted with any developments as this looks like a wonderful little project :wink:
