About this Item

This book was commissioned by two owners of these rare cars.Triumph's rare and costly straight eight Dolomite was closely modeled on Alfa Romeo's superlative 8C 2300 model. Born over a corporate lunch between Donald Healey, then an executive at Triumph, and motoring journalist Tommy Wisdom the idea was to lure British drivers to a 100mph supercharged car intended to challenge the best of the continental opposition. The book is a Limited Leather Edition- Number 13 of 100 copies - presented in a matching slipcase with a Triumph Dolomite on the front. The book, which retains its original box, is Signed by the author, Jonathan Wood, and the joint publishers and is from the library of the late Bill Cummings who was chairman of the Austin Healey Club. Sadly it failed to attract any buyers.This is a large, heavy book which may require additional postage. Inventory # M6793.
