1930's Triumph Dolomite Restoration.

Here we are very fortunate in beginning a new and very interesting project; the complete restoration and refurbishment of a 1930's Triumph Dolomite.
We welcome you to join us as we make our way through, step by step. The owner of the car will be rebuilding the engine as he has a great deal of experience in this area. Our aim is to return this car into a nice and useable condition to be enjoyed on family adventures of the future in the same way as grandfather had decades before!

Some Further Wolseley Hornet Autumn Photos.

Exhaust System (Tailpipes not yet trimmed to length), manifold to have further attention before painting.

Passenger side heat shield.

Perhaps the competitors view?

Heat shield mounting boss being bronze welded into position. The second "lozenge" shape mounting, ready to bronze weld on to the back of the Brooklands Can, can be seen in the background.

We will also weld a threaded Lambda sensor mounting bush discretely into position behind the heat shield, to allow an occasional monitor of the mixture.

Making exhaust mountings ready to bronze weld to the back of each Brooklands Can where a bolt and post will travel through the body skin to pick up with a bulkhead mounted bracket; avoiding any loads through the aluminium body of the car.

Engine breather catch tank and fittings.

Autumn At HEC

It has been a busy and eclectic autumn period here at the HEC.
Here are a few photos to illustrate some of the work:

Wolseley Hornet Exhaust: passenger side "Brooklands Can" heat shield, as light and efficient as possible:

Porsche 944s. Attention to a few paint details before continued re-commission and engine peripheral work:

Triumph Dolomite. The beginning of a great Journey, we will enjoy this!:

Morris 8, Carburettor service as this little car will be in regular use throughout the winter.

We built the engine about eight years ago, it is always nice to see it out and about along the Dorset coast on a regular jaunt. Sometimes old is better, what better way to travel along the Dorset coastal lanes and cliff top picnic.. even in winter!
