The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

on one of my doors

Have been unable to work on the car as much as i would like but heres a couple of bits,
Carbon spoiler,




One of aluns exellent fiberglass wings( if anyones in dought about the fit dont be )
I have modded for a vent nearly ready to take a mold from


Fuel pumps and hard lines


Made a battery box holder ,fitted the extinguisher bracket and put a false floor in
washer bottle fitted and water inj pump,




Also took a trip to pro alloy for a fuel tank (ouch)
Be done in 3 weeks
Ps the spoiler weighs 1lb, without the back part which i have made today
Not a lot diff in weight but looks the doggs

They look fantastic WOW.

You're certainly not mucking around, are you? I thought ALG1K was hardcore but this is going to be mad.

Thanks ,
Just been told redundancey imminent so may take longer to finnish with no cash to buy bits
As i was funding this with my overtime money

That's a pain. How about looking for some sponsorship to finish the project?

I have been there 19 years so i dont know if i get plant closure redundancy package as we dont have a
union or an official on site ,

I work at Jag for a supplier
I used to work at jag on the engine build, test
As the engines went to bridge end I chose to take my redundancy
And did quite a bit of travelling ,
I then returned to jag employment about a year later on a temporary contract
I then heard one of the managers was setting up a company to which I moved to
But I still work at jag sites as I know the cars and more importantly the managers of several key areas
I may be moving back under jag employment have to see how it pans out

Well as with all the rest of us I wish you every success. I'm sure a man with your talents won't be under-used for long.

Well if all else fails, there looks to be a good business opportunity in making carbon fibre panels! (not just for Dollys though!) good luck!

Steve

PS if you do go into production, I'd like a bonnet!

Ok i will keep that in mind,
I am putting the first front spoiler i made on ebay as i want to moddify the original a little more
I only made that one to see how it would come out as i didnt want to fit the back part to it and it works ok with just the front,
I bet its the only one in existence !
