The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

Is this blue 1300 fwd known to the club???

Engine no. RD 70659 HE
Was owned by Josephine Hayes, probably around 10 years ago, but that's the only info I have I'm afraid.

Still in existence?

I saw it only today (I think!)

I've just read the other thread where Justyn has acquired this one

I'll update my FWD list. Any more details Justyn?

(I see now it was Josephine Hawes, not Hayes, too. Same owner then.)

Yep its the one i got yesterday, registered to josi hawes(3) who is the mother of the owner(richard hawes ,owner 2) bought at eastern car auctions march 2003 by richard.
according to the first owner the car had spent a lot of its life in a museum, but there is no info on this. possible dates for the museum are 74 - 83 or 88 - 2003. as these are the tax discs that are missing.suspect it was the latter before being auctioned.

I will check chassis/engine nos and do pics tomorrow.

Thanks for bringing the car to my attention Mark.
Do you have my dolphin grey HWV 809E on your list?

Yes thanks Justyn, all details complete for HWV and the pics from the forum.

BTW I also have VMX 276G listed, last known in Middlesex in 1995.
This was red, possibly Damson, chassis no. RD 70271 DL. Must have come from same garage, but how close is the chassis number to yours? They appear to be very random in allocation.

chassis RD70213 , paint 66, trim 1.











Just checked it over and can only find 4 patches that need welding (only 2 for mot) i will take it into work this week to put it up on the ramps for a better look.

Cheers Justyn, looks a tidy little car, keep the updates coming
