Jack F K Posted September 6, 2021 Report Share Posted September 6, 2021 Hi all, My Doretti came with one of the original factory hardtops, of which I believe I've read there were only 5. I've seen images of one (green) on Google - just curious how many are surviving, and if any owners are members here? I'd love to see what the inside of it originally looked like, and the latch fittings. In the long run, I'd like to do a nice (thin) interior headliner and a subtle wiring connection to include an auxiliary brake/reverse bar and maybe even a courtesy light - were the originals just painted metal? Also does anyone know if it was an entirely custom rear glass piece or whether it was shared with some other car? Cheers, Jack Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueTR3A-5EKT Posted December 17, 2021 Report Share Posted December 17, 2021 Had me going there for a minute. I’d never seen one in the flesh let alone fitted until doing a web search and finding this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm going to his farm tomorrow for a weekend working bee. The car next to it is also an Australia Register owner. It has a 6 cylinder PI engine in it, but the original block is with the car.

doretti Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 Hi Jack, I wonder if the blue Doretti in this 1960s classified advert, could have been your car? Ken Quote Link to post Share on other sites
