Get yourself over to the Triumph Dolomite Club (TDC) forum. They are the club that specializes in the Dolomite range and it is the best place to start for all things Dolomite. CT is more about driving the cars. Toledo Man Former stable of 5 Acclaims, 1 Toledo, 2 1500fwd, 1 1300fwd, 1 Dolomite 1300 & 1 Dolomite Sprint (that's just the Triumphs!) |

It’s not a problem I’m over it. But it did give me the hump for a while! |

I queried the "no contact details" issue with ebay and they tell me I can request contact details by their contact-the-seller and contact details can then be made. This is what they sent me "In this situation, you may contact the seller via eBay messages and ask for their contact number so that you can make a call over phone" Don Cook |

Hi Murdo to be honest the car hasn’t received much love as yet. Time hasn’t been on my side as we are renovating our house, which we anticipate to take a couple of years. So the car is not top priority at the moment. That said, I did have the car running last week after a bit of tinkering, but it promptly sprung a leak from the front carb which stopped further progress. Parts have been ordered and I’m hoping to get back in the garage some time this week. There’s plenty of work needs doing; carb rebuild, full service, coolant flush, brakes, refit interior, rear seat belts, clutch, front screen, treat the underside... and that’s just the bits I know about.... there will be more no doubt! All the best, Bish. |

Plodding on! Not too much too report only that I have decided to replace the drivers side chassis leg and floor pan. Further investigation led to more rust than expected (doesn’t it always?) and I can’t bring myself to patch it up when I could do it properly whilst I’ve got the gearbox out and subframe dropped at the rear. I will order the parts from the TDC when I’ve got a bit of time and press on. I’ve a restoration thread on TDC titled VYK The Russet where I will post up any progress. Cheers. |
