Motorsport Mickey Posted February 12, 2022 Report Share Posted February 12, 2022 That looks good, I think Pinky has done something similar with his TR6. Mick Richards Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lebro Posted February 12, 2022 Report Share Posted February 12, 2022 Photo taken in 1976 Goodwood TR "Practise day" I'm told this Dove is now back as it should be , red, with the reg GPH 360C (ring any bells ?) Bob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlueTR3A-5EKT Posted February 12, 2022 Report Share Posted February 12, 2022 I’m of the opinion that Dove with 4 headlamps did the TR Register John O Groats to Lands End run back in the mid 70’s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ralph Whitaker Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 I wonder if Dove bought the TR5 prototype cheap and converted it. Twin headlight set up was probably an idea to make the 5 stand out from the TR4, in the same way twin lights were fitted to the Vitesse while the 4 pot Herald remained with single lights. May have been thinking of producing the 2 models side by side. Ralph Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ianc Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 But a good way of getting 4 headlights and, by the look of it, trafficators which are visible from both front and side. Loses the distinctive, but unnecessary, hump over the non-existent carburettors. Somewhat bland alongside a TR4/4A/5. Ian Cornish Quote Link to post Share on other sites
