[ROVERNET - UK] Coupe Turlock, CA $1,500

[Kent Kinard]

Hi Netters,
I just remembered something else about this car.  It may have had it's 
VIN altered in order to get it into the US.  Only P5B's manufactured 
prior to January 1, 1968, were old enough to avoid certain import 
restrictions before the twenty-five year rule went into effect.  When I 
talked with the current owner, he originally insisted that it was a 
1964, which, of course, it is not.  I believe he was sincere in his 
insistence, not being a Rover person.  Even 1967 is too early for this 
example as it has the later style transmission shift knob.  Inquire 
about the VIN (it may be just fine), but be aware that an illegally 
imported car doesn't ever become legal.  My brain is getting old and I 
don't remember things the way I should.

Roveretardedly,
Kent K.
