Toledo FWD doors on a RWD car ?

#1 Post by Driftindazza »

Hi, have an option on some doors for a front wheel drive Toledo. They look the same as a RWD Toledo but anyone know if they fit. Sounds like a long shot I know but they do look the same.

No such car as a front wheel drive Toledo.
If you mean a Triumph 1500, which is a dolomite shaped front wheel drive then the doors will be a straight fit bt if you mean a Triumph 1300 which has a different front end to the Dolomite then the answer is yes they will fit but they won't stay closed as the part of the panel where the lock is is very different and not interchangeable unless you cut and graft the dolomite section in and the inner panel that houses the window winder etc is also different.
Some people are like Slinky's, they serve no real purpose in life but bring a smile to your face when you push them down the stairs.
