KIT CAR SPOTLIGHT - PIMLICO BY DOMINO CARS

Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail Thumbnail

Available: 1986 to Present

Brief history of car:

The Domino Pimlico was a rust beating mini replica, albeit different enough to keep any lawsuits at bay (real minis were still being made)

The Pimlico was a doorless cabriolet with high seals which gave it a buggy like look. Body construction was GRP monocoque so no rusting problems which was a big draw for fed up Mini owners constantly battling the tin worm.

Mini subframes were bolted to the monocoque and all other Mini mechanical components were used. Save for upgrading a few items, this was a one donor car kit. Although you never hear of them, Fibertech GRP Ltd still produce the Pimlico. Later developments saw the Domino Premier with doors, the HT with a Hard Top and a pick up variant.
