The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

National Restoration Show, Stoneleigh, Warwickshire Sunday 21st October. Will the Club be putting on an award-winning display again this time? Watch this space.....

I can do this event this year. My expertise (?) is probably spannering so if there was a Dolomite there that needed some work I'd be happy to have a go. I'll bring SWK which is tidy(ish) but there would be better cars to exhibit alongside the one we work on I reckon.
Cheers All,
Tony.

I could bring my Green one, it would give anyone a good challenge. Are there prizes? I feel I'm a good contender for the 'that needs a bit of work', 'still it was good of you to save it' and 'I hope you've got deep pockets' awards
Was going to sell it to the nice fella that's looking for a project, but in all honesty now I've had a really good look around, it's got to be the ropiest one with an MOT. I still love her, maybe I should turn up just to reassure everyone else that theirs isn't so bad after all

wish I could transport my Toledo up some someone could find what the hell happened to my engine

I'm definitely up for this again (we didn't do it last year). I don't have a car to bring along to work on though.

I could bring my engineless Sprint auto shell, I reckon that would beat Vengers into 2nd place for the prizes he mentioned!
There's no indication yet of the mechanical horrors I'm going to perpetrate on it and I have nearly all the new steel needed to resurrect it on hand.

I was unable to get to this last year as one's apparently not allowed to take in dogs (although children, generally far less obedient, are allowed). However, I've acquired a friend just up the road from the venue, although not specifically for this purpose, so could leave the dog there this time.

Get to the point YMGW! Ah, yes, the point: what is required/needed by way of cars to be shown/worked on? I would happily bring the SE if it would be useful to do so.

Count both myself and Steve Wilkes as definite hands.

My white car could be used as a recurring theme; nothing has happened to it since last show two years ago save for a bit of welding.

Only still no licence, the tow car is off the road and my transporter is occupied!

Myself, Rich and Matthew are up for this... We know Dollys!

Two weeks on Sunday chaps...anything being arranged?

I can't step up to the mark to organise anything this time as I'm too reliant on others for transport...

Sadly it's looking extremely unlikely that we'll be putting on a display at this show. Unless someone can take the lead and organise a display (assuming that there is stand space still available - the show organisers have yet to return my call, by the way) then it's not looking hopeful. If a member can step up to the plate and take this on, then please get in touch ASAP.

Maybe we should have Club presence even if nothing is going on?

Perhaps a restored car with photo display of the processes undergone and a project car next to it with a few tables and chairs and merchandise? I still have the day free; anyone else?

Alun, good idea at least we will be there,

Hope to get to show and can help if required.

Bill.

Yep, I'd still like to go along.
