    2 boot lids and a fuel tank

    I have 2 boot lids and a fuel tank that the buyer of my car and the parts elected not to take. At present the boot lids are under my car port and the tank is in the garage. They are located in Sheffield at S20 5AX and are free if anyone is interested. One boot lid has the bracing and hole for...

    1977 3.5 litre P6 soon to be available

    I own a green 1977 Rover 3.5litre V6 which I have always meant to restore one day but never have and it's clear that it's not going to happen now and I am now about to lose where it has been stored for soooo many years. I am hoping to go and view it in the next few days and I will take photos...

    Advice on Roof & Screen removal

    Today I started to strip my first P6 as the base unit is just to far gone. Decided I would strip her completely and salvage/save as much as I can. Today I removed all the wings, the seats, roof lining, front air scoop, front scuttle panel, front bumper, seat belts and all door post trims...

    heated Rear Widow

    Okay Chaps (& chapettes), Went out in the car tonight and on the return journey the rear window fogged up. Turned on the demister/heater and nothing happened! Apart from a small area the size of a golf ball clearing. Is it common for the thin wiring in the glass to fail/burn out or will a...

    Scary stuff - Rear Shock Absorbers

    Crikey chaps (and chapettes) having finally got the opportunity (and weather) to have a look under the rear of the car to see why it was knocking/banging and to change the dampers I could not belive what was waiting for me. It would appear that the dampers on the car were relatively new but the...

    Tyres - 185/14

    Out of curiosity (and because I do not know how old my tyres are), I decided to price up a set of NEW tyres. I was informed that the 185R/14 tyres I have are no longer available from the main/known manufaturers (unless I want commercial tyres) and the imports available are £40 a piece (not...

    Weird electrics!

    Can anyone explain to me why the following occured; Got in the car this morning (at 0600) and set off to work. To be fair I never checked the oil pressure reading as it is something I have never really had available on a gauge to look at in a car. I turned on the rear window heater/de-mister...

    Where have my gears gone? - Pudding stick

    Replacement/repair panels - Rear suspension

    Is is possible to buy pre formed repair panels for the boot where the Top link assembly from the de dion tube joins the inner wing/boot? If so where from? I ask as the nearside bolt on mine is only holding on by the thinest piece of metal as the rest has rotted away around it. Before I begin...
