Hi to you All around the World.
I was once a member on the forum and it has been some considerable time now since i have last been on, I kindly had my user name and log on details confirmed (cheers Richard)
So nearly 13/14 years ago a bought a sorry Rover P6 2000 TC 1973 (Just found out no road TAX WAYHAY!!) in Glasgow. A good Lad called Colin helped me with advice about the car and set about getting it back on the road following some main body repairs and a new lick of paint. I then relocated to Devon and didn't really use the car for much and as usual life takes over and she got a little neglected. some 12 years later after doing the repairs she is now back with me after spending nearly 5 years in a garage in Devon and i now live in Doncaster. The car was arranged to be a supprise for me on my 40th Birthday on the 11 of April, the first time i had seen her for about 4 years it was a great surprise and no surprise she was delivered on the back of a flat bed got a little emotional... LOL! I will include the pictures of the covert mission i was given from friends and family that brought her back to me.
I would love to know if there are any members in or near Doncaster i could meet and hopefully get the old bird up and running again. She is on axel Stand awaiting new front calipers and an overhaul of the rear's.
In this time i have learnt a valuable lesson on the back of my zero knowledge around painting that preparation is everything and now i am in the same place i was, body panels wise 14 years ago. Hopefully the attachment has worked and here she is. Look forward to some graft and nice days driving. Cheers All Chris Wright
