Thanks for the responses - I have a better idea now - coil is probably my first check though as that was changed recently due to other issues - is brand new though and was fitted by Pete from JP and ran sweet for a while thereafter. Fingers crossed it's not too much longer before I can look...

I am distraught. Having purchased my 3rd P6 in October last year it broke down on the way home and needed a replacement engine which I sourced and had fitted through JP Restorations.
This obviously wasn't cheap and neither have the countless other jobs been in the couple of months since...
My 3500 runs hot (almost into the red) even on short runs and when returning to the garage, is dropping water so seemingly needs a new radiator.
What types fit - should I be looking for P6 specific radiators or do others eg. Range Rover fit?

What modern wheel offset wheels would fit my 1974 3500? I am after something different and seem to remember years ago that Chrysler Jeep wheels would fit.
Something different yet retro is what I am after....

Hi all
Just a quick word of advice on this - on the back of how good alimorg's motor looks, I went ahead and won some similar wheels on Ebay (item 7954434285) but on visiting the tyre guy this morning (with 5mm spacers to hand), was told that the studs are slightly out so the wheels are no...

I can't find the link now but in the last fortnight I read on the site that somebody had bought and fitted 16 x 7 Jeep Cherokee wheels on their P6.
They had included photos which made their 3500S look the business... so much so I have now bought some myself. The original topic...
Hi Johno
Try Red Hat Rovers in Spaldwick, Cambs - sorry not got the number to hand (they advertise in Classic Cars Weekly). I bought an immaculate set of sandalwood ambla from him yesterday and he has around 25 P6s and a couple of garages full of extras including interiors of all types and...
Spot on, thanks John. I may well have had a change of heart though now as I like the idea of some Jeep Cherokee tyres as mentioned in another part of the forum.
Will keep you informed.

Hi all
Just bought some P5/6 15" Rostyles off Ebay for my '74 3500S and no-one (ATS, Kwik Fit and National Tyres) seems to know the best tyres to fit front and rear. They state that 185s are the biggest on the front due to shock clearance but there are postings on this forum of people with...
Morning folks
I have seen some Rostyle wheels advertised for an MGB and am unsure as to whether they will fit my 3500S. I have been told they are 14" 4 stud, 76ml pcd whatever that means!
Will they fit and if not, what should I be looking for?
Many thanks.

Hi all
I am after fitting a series 1 grill and light surrounds/badge to my series 2 3500S. Is it a straight swap or are modifications required?
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi all
I registered 2 topics a few days ago and am made up with the quality of replies so what the hell, here is something else I need to know.
I have read articles about the need for year round antifreeze in the engine - when and how often should I check this - I will be driving between...
Cheers John
I have sourced some seats now and am driving to South Wales tomorrow afternoon to collect them (from Manchester). I actually bought a full car (Rover P6 2200TC - Ebay auction number 2483405304) for £60.00 but have agreed with the seller that I will pay this just for the...
