Domino Pimlico under construction
Back in the mid 1980s I built a Domino Pimlico, 1275cc Austin Mini based kit-car for my then girlfriend. After we split up I sold the car to a lovely girl from Fulbourn, Cambridge who ran it for some time.
The reg number was DOE401C and it had a grey soft top.
I found a colour negative dating back to the time of build and scanned it.
It was a magnificent car to drive in the summer months with a serious turn of speed. I quite regretted selling it.
I believe it is no longer on the road, but if anyone recognises the number plate or the description please let me know.
This pic is the bodyshell being fitted out in the tiny garage I had in my old house near Nottingham.
As you will see from the next two pics, I now have another Pimlico to restore in my old age!
