Hello there folks, I am very humbled and excited to join this forum. I have been tinkering with many old cars and motorcycles since my teens and have always admired the Rover cars. I recently fulfilled a dream to try a rover and just drove it home from Spokane Washington on Friday. It is vin# 41801910A. It was owned by the same family since 1970 and was kept after very fastidiously over all these years. It has not been driven much but the engine runs beautifully and I have checked the compression and all cylinders are reading in the 140-150 range. The body is basically perfect with it being repainted sometime in it's history; the roof clear coat is peeling a bit and it is missing the body trim strip on the rear right wing. If any one has any info or knows someone who has one of these trim pieces available I would be very grateful. I have tried Wins but they only have the later wider style from the series 2 cars. I am first going to go through and replace all the fluids and replace the typical tune up parts and go from there. I did notice on the drive that the suspension seems very tired and a bit of vibration at highway speeds. I have. a lift in my garage and am going to have a look underneath this coming week. Thanks so much for this great forum and will keep you updated. I am curious if most folks here are also on the facebook P6 group?
cheers! Paul
