Message-ID: <7CF2472A-B042-4D80-8239-4965523006BD@telusplanet.net>
Hi All.
In all of my manuals, commencing numbers always refer to UK standards,
ie., 40000001, 41500001a, etc.
Does anyone know how export cars correlate to these numbers?
my cars engine is 8590XXXXD, and body is 8590XXXXF.
Thanks,
Roy

Have a look at Rudiger's website, in particular this page. I think he may have what you want for the VIN or chassis numbers:
http://www.roverp6.info/chassisno.htm
I had to look in my "Rover 2000 Workshop Manual Supplement", part no. 605485, dated August 1968 to find:
NEW FEATURES
In order to comply with US Federal regulations, certain new features have been introduced.
Vehicle commencing numbers are as follows:
**** Automatic transmission SC - 8580001E onwards
**** TC - 85900001H onwards
Engine numbers:
**** Automatic transmission SC - 85800001H onwards
**** TC - 85900001B onwards
Hope that helps.

My 1970 P6B has no A/C and has untinted glass.

Hi Ray,
Tinted glass was "mandatory option" with A/C, meaning you had to order
the glass to get the A/C (so supposedly no NAS A/C cars were produced
without tinted glass.) This includes the tinted windscreen which is not
illegal here. Albert's NAS P6B w/o A/C (California car) has tinted
glass all around. All my NAS P6B's with A/C have tinted glass. My 452
car (Series 2 RHD export) has tinted glass all around but I doubt that
it was original as the car is heavily modified.
I'd be interested to know if anyone has a NAS P6B w/o AC that came
without tinted glass.
Roverly,
Kent K.

Is the last owner of a 1970 Series ll 2000 TC on the list?
I rescued this car from a junkyard between Dahlonega & Cleveland in the NE corner of Georgia where it had probably been sitting for only a few weeks. It's one of the few Series ll TCs imported to the US - 435 VIN #, round instruments etc. and looks to have been red with a tan interior. I bought the car for parts but looking more closely I'm thinking it might be savable so I'd love to talk to the last owner

We are not the last owners of that car, but do have two Series II TCs (72 & 74) in Central New York. There's a good chance we'll be coming up from Florida through Atlanta and Rome, Georgia within the next three weeks. Where are you?

Is the last owner of a 1970 Series ll 2000 TC on the list?
I rescued this car from a junkyard between Dahlonega & Cleveland in the NE corner of Georgia where it had probably been sitting for only a few weeks. It's one of the few Series ll TCs imported to the US - 435 VIN #, round instruments etc. and looks to have been red with a tan interior. I bought the car for parts but looking more closely I'm thinking it might be savable so I'd love to talk to the last owner

Hello Rovernet,
I have just completed restoring a no AC 3500S that does not have tinted glass. I have 2 other 3500S with AC here that both do have tinted glass.
One is my own car that I am re-restoring after a marginal paint respray a few years ago. The second is a really sound but partly disassembled car that is FOR SALE. It was last on the road in Georgia in 1980. It still has the plate on it. Feel free to contact me via email for details if you are interested in finding out more about the car for sale.

Hi Jim,
I think the real oddball would be a car /with/ AC and /no/ tinted glass
since there were not supposed to be any of them built. My original
question was whether there were NAS 3500S cars without AC and no tinted
glass. So far most of the non-AC cars seem to have no tinted glass.
Maybe we should hear from those with no AC and with tinted glass.
Roversemitransparently,
Kent K.

Message-ID: <49DBC50B.1030907@att.net>
Roverites,
I had a little spare time so I thought I'd try to get the green car
(P6B) running. No keys. I drilled the lock..a little too much.
Unlocked the column but couldn't turn the ignition on. Pulled the
column to remove the column lock. Got the switch out to turn it by
hand. Hooked up an electric pump and a gas can (tank in car is unknown
quantity). Turned the switch. Cranked but no fire. Traced the
ignition wire looking for bad connections..started at the switch..found
the bad connection at the ballast resistor (Mallory ignition). Now we
have fire. Turn the switch and we have liftoff. Shut it down and try
the switch again...no starter. Crawl underneath and jump the
starter...spins but will not engage. Assume stuck solenoid...one day
gone. Will pull starter and grease solenoid next week...or maybe work
on a different problem...there are many from which to choose. P4/100
choke cable is too short (someone trimmed it when the 105 engine was
fitted). Looks like the heater box will have to come out to get at the
choke cable. Could put the starter on the P5...or the PS
pump/generator...or I could replace the non-existent rear main seal
(rope type) on the brown P6B....or finish the engine I started ten years
ago.
I am so thankful that I will never run out of things to occupy my time.
Roverly,
Kent K.

I bought it from a fellow who had pulled it out of the barn and kept it in the blazzing sun?for 2 years, but could not get?it going.
?
I flat bedded it home after paying a $1000.00 US, its white with a rough/dry black leather interior, chrome US spec wheels,?factory?bullet racing mirror on the bonnet and rev counter on the dash.
?
I recently completed installing the?NOS?waterpump (without removing the Rad etc, my arms look like the cat got me), hoses, fan belt and filled it with coolant, balanced and adjusted the carbs after rebuilding them, installed?a new twin?carb manifold?as I had a new one?, replaced the voltage regulator and polarized it.
?
I had previously installed a new clutch master, slave, brake master and bled the systems, unjammed the stuck clutch, etc, etc.
?
Then on Saturday I turned the ignition key, on the second turn she fired up and we went for a short?drive,?locally just in case, I was amazed how well the TC runs, smooth even power, quiet, comfy ride, nice brakes, it was a flash back in time, it was all well?worth while, I slipped into?thoughts of my days?growing up in London.
?
Now I have to change all the fluids
Lubricate everything
Put a boot on the De Dion Tube
(is there a similar?CV boot that will fit and seal without dismantling stuff? some kind of zip lock or glue thingy)?
?
I need new tires also, but I'm nearly there!
?
While bleeding the rears brakes I broke the nipple off, then?I broke a back out tool in the nipple?
?
The brakes work fine but I'm gonna need a new caliper?got one?
?
I like to drive in Vintage car road rallys through the backroads of northern California,?
One is?3 days?900 miles,
I will use this car to drive the California Melee in Sept, temperators run from 50f at the ocean to 116f inland(will need a low temp thermostat, have you got one?
?
?Just google the California Melee vintage rally to see some great pics of vintage cars and stunning scenery.
?
I am also working on a 1964 SC LHD 4 speed,?its white with a red interior and very clean, it was off the road since 1990 also,?
I have it started and its?running great,?after repairing all the same things as the TC,
?
Only problem is that the brakes stay on after stopping?any ideas.
?
I replaced the orig Dunlop master with a Girling master, could that be the problem?
?
Also when?I turn the ignition key nothing happens the first few times, then after a few turns?the starter fires? any Ideas?
?
Well folks, as you can see I've turned into a Rover nut!
?
I have an MGB and I will be driving the Snow ball vintage car rally(googlt it too!)?at the end of the month, its 700 miles through the Sierras, deserts, mountains, forests and delta in California and Nevada, we stay at frank Sinatras old Casino the Cal/Neva,
?
all the best to you all and any advice/tips would be appreciated!
?
Cheers,
Peter in Walnut Creek CA near SF

Removing the radiator is not hard, and would save hours...
Only problem is that the brakes stay on after stopping?any ideas.
Is this for half a second, or what?
If it is rear brakes only for a short period, the hose connecting the
right caliper to the base unit is suspect; often in the wrong hole.
Strangely it goes in the top hole.
Also when I turn the ignition key nothing happens the first few times,
then after a few turns the starter fires? any Ideas?
Do you mean it turns a few times then starts?
Try a ballasted coil (with resistor, add a relay driven off the starter
solenoid). It fixed the starting for me.
Well folks, as you can see I've turned into a Rover nut!
Once bitten there is no turning back. It is like malaria, it never
leaves your system and makes you hallucinate occasionally...

A small amount of oil, catch it and put back in engine if desired.

No nothing not even a click Paul!
Check solenoid connections (solenoid sits behind left headlights), even
a half turn loose on the main cables can make it Not work, as I found
out.

Aha!!!! ...and this is a NAS 3500S? We have found the needle in the
haystack. It would be worth trying to get a copy of the build sheet.

What a strange place to store a linear accelerator...and it must have
been a very large barn:-) If I install a linear accelerator on my Rover
will it be able to approach the speed of light? Will it fit? My
current accelerator is broken. Yes, I keep it in a very large barn.
It's late. I think I should retire.
Roveretiredly tiredly,
Kent K.

Couldn't you just tie a string to the existing choke cable and draw it out and then use the string to draw in the right one?

No, the sleeve had been shortened also. If it were just the wire, it
wouldn't be such a problem.

Hi
Mysterious brake hang ups s are usually caused by collapsing flex hoses .
They often look OK from the outside but disintegrate inside . I would
flush the brake system, to get rid of ancient fluid and floating hose crud ,
then change all the flex hoses before ripping any thing apart .
Cheers
Patrick

story!
Glad your keeping busy Kent!
Heres my story for everybody in "Rover Land"!
My TC has been off the road since 1990, it originally belonged to a
Scientist who loved it and detailed every sip of oil/gas, repairs etc.
He designed the linear accellerator at Stanford University, when he died it
got stuck in a damp barn near SF and forgotten.
I bought it from a fellow who had pulled it out of the barn and kept it in
the blazzing sun for 2 years, but could not get it going.
I flat bedded it home after paying a $1000.00 US, its white with a rough/dry
black leather interior, chrome US spec wheels, factory bullet racing mirror
on the bonnet and rev counter on the dash.
I recently completed installing the NOS waterpump (without removing the Rad
etc, my arms look like the cat got me), hoses, fan belt and filled it with
coolant, balanced and adjusted the carbs after rebuilding them, installed a
new twin carb manifold as I had a new one?, replaced the voltage regulator
and polarized it.
I had previously installed a new clutch master, slave, brake master and bled
the systems, unjammed the stuck clutch, etc, etc.
Then on Saturday I turned the ignition key, on the second turn she fired up
and we went for a short drive, locally just in case, I was amazed how well
the TC runs, smooth even power, quiet, comfy ride, nice brakes, it was a
flash back in time, it was all well worth while, I slipped into thoughts of
my days growing up in London.
Now I have to change all the fluids
Lubricate everything
Put a boot on the De Dion Tube
(is there a similar CV boot that will fit and seal without dismantling
stuff? some kind of zip lock or glue thingy)?
I need new tires also, but I'm nearly there!
While bleeding the rears brakes I broke the nipple off, then I broke a back
out tool in the nipple?
The brakes work fine but I'm gonna need a new caliper?got one?
I like to drive in Vintage car road rallys through the backroads of northern
California,
One is 3 days 900 miles,
I will use this car to drive the California Melee in Sept, temperators run
from 50f at the ocean to 116f inland(will need a low temp thermostat, have
you got one?
Just google the California Melee vintage rally to see some great pics of
vintage cars and stunning scenery.
I am also working on a 1964 SC LHD 4 speed, its white with a red interior
and very clean, it was off the road since 1990 also,
I have it started and its running great, after repairing all the same things
as the TC,
Only problem is that the brakes stay on after stopping?any ideas.
I replaced the orig Dunlop master with a Girling master, could that be the
problem?
Also when I turn the ignition key nothing happens the first few times, then
after a few turns the starter fires? any Ideas?
Well folks, as you can see I've turned into a Rover nut!
I have an MGB and I will be driving the Snow ball vintage car rally(googlt
it too!) at the end of the month, its 700 miles through the Sierras,
deserts, mountains, forests and delta in California and Nevada, we stay at
frank Sinatras old Casino the Cal/Neva,
all the best to you all and any advice/tips would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Peter in Walnut Creek CA near SF

You could tie the string to the choke cable and pull both the housing and the cable together. I was able to do this to my P4 with a used one from Bill Osmond I believe. I tied it to the end in the engine compartment and un-did the screw ring to the choke holder under the dash and pulled it out through the interior. I then tied the string to the replacement one and pulled the string from the engine compartment and voila! Good luck.

Nice to see a growth in Rovernet traffic, perhaps now Spring has sprung (well in the Northern Hemisphere anyway) the lifting of covers and the extraction from dusty barns of old Rovers will again generate the flow of conversation that used to exist.
I know many on here contribute to the wealth of 'other' Rover forums now in existence on the web but I know when I started on here about 10 years ago I think it was the only Rover forum in existence, not sure when you started it Eric but glad you did. Must say i prefer the "ask a question and it goes to all" format of
Rovernet to the "log in and see what may be interesting" of the off the shelf forums, interesting though they are. Having said that if all the emails on all the forums came through Rovernet I doubt the sever could cope! ;)
Kent, re choke cable problem would not a 'splitter' from a 2000TC act as an extension and save all the work?

Oddly enough, Roland, I'm not sure I have one. I'll look in the NOS
pile (not fully sorted yet). I know I don't have one on a parts car.
Good idea, though.

Thanks, Alan.
March 23, 1995 I set as the start date as I have an email hard copy from the chap which whom I was corresponding on the subject of getting the Rovernet physically installed on a host computer server in Michigan state.
When we started, I don't think forums were in operation. I prefer the email approach for the reason you listed. The email can also appear more easily on mobile devices while you are awaiting your flight to London and an audience with the Queen (no .... the *real* Queen).... :-)

I do begin to wonder if maybe globally the forum 'genre' has been pushed to the limit of contributors now. The P4 Guild, P5 Club and P6 Owners Club(all of which have up to 10 + different sections)all have their own and the Rover Sports Register covers not only these models but all other Rovers as well. the P6 Drivers Club has the same set up as Rovernet where every posting is sent to all members but given the choices available unsuprisingly?doesn't generate much traffic.?As someone with an interest in predominately the pre SD1 marques It can take some time to check them all out for postings of interest let alone try and reply. This excludes any other forums that may exist in the Southern Hemisphere and mainland Europe.?
Not complaining just observing. :)

Alan,
Thanks for the updating on Rover communications. I started the Rovernet when I came back to P6 Rovers and noticed that only Land Rovers had pre-existing mailing lists.
I guess young and enthusiastic Rover owners could set up "My Space", "Facebook" pages and also "Twitter" each other :-)
Too late for me....... :-(

Eric
Surely the problem will be to find ? Young enthusiastic Rover Owners ? to carry on the good work ??. I seem to meet a steadily aging bunch of geezers at our local car shows
My two sons have looked on my long term interest in old Rovers as a form of occupational therapy for a confused parent . They look on the P6B as a complicated and expensive form of transport . They consider a Hyundai would be an infinitely superior car !
Cheers
Patrick

Alan,
Thanks for the updating on Rover communications. I started the Rovernet when I came back to P6 Rovers and noticed that only Land Rovers had pre-existing mailing lists.
I guess young and enthusiastic Rover owners could set up "My Space", "Facebook" pages and also "Twitter" each other :-) Ahh yes, I've never quite understood the youthful obsession with baring your soul in public and as many on here know (myself only to well) comments by email without primeval facial expressions and gestures are fraught with danger!
Too late for me....... :-( It's never to late! ;)
I'll stick to the Rovernet where there's a chance I might:
1. Understand how to function .....and of course how Rovers function
2. Know some people
Eric
14 years is a helluva time in anyones life and full marks for spotting the potential of the web, now if only you'd thought of Ebay............... you could've been Sir Eric by now ! :)

I think there's hope. My son, who is in his 30's, is keen on Rovers, he
has two SD-1s and was the former owner of my P6B. There's another chap
nearby, in his 30s or 40s, with a nice Series II SD-1. And don't
forget Dirk Burrowes' son, who by all accounts is carrying on the family
tradition.
That said, I do agree that time marches on. The Rover car owners (as
opposed to Land Rover product owners) in the TARC are, sadly, thinning
out. Well, at least their number is. ;-)
Cheers,

Gents,
I guess that we are the product of our beliefs and values, no matter if that
is delightful self deprecating humour; love of fine British motorcars; and
enjoying a really good laugh, of which I have had quite a few over the last
several days. Gentlemen, thank you.
Whilst I am a free thinker and generally encourage it - my children
(daughter Michelle aged 10 and a son James aged 7) are still quite young - I
am doing my level best to indoctrinate them to the ways of why Rovers are
'cool'. I have established a firm base, surrounding them with all things
Rover - RR (my every dayer) Disco (wife's every dayer) 2 p6B's and a P5B
coupe, but only time will tell, however the prognosis is positive at this
stage..... To other people struggling with the concept of a P6B, I say try
to imagine what a BMW 335 might be like (only better) and go back 30 years
in time!
Patrick, loved the article and photo in Practical Classics. Your comments
are perhaps a bit harsh, given the relative start points, but at the end of
the day you are absolutely right! My edition of PC has just hit the news
stands in Australia.
Best wishes for Easter and don't have too much chocolate! (On the other
hand...why not!)
Hugh

Surely the problem will be to find " Young enthusiastic Rover Owners " to
carry on the good work ??. I seem to meet a steadily aging bunch of
geezers at our local car shows
My two sons have looked on my long term interest in old Rovers as a form of
occupational therapy for a confused parent . They look on the P6B as a
complicated and expensive form of transport . They consider a Hyundai would
be an infinitely superior car !

Alan,
Thanks for the updating on Rover communications. I started the Rovernet when
I came back to P6 Rovers and noticed that only Land Rovers had pre-existing
mailing lists.
I guess young and enthusiastic Rover owners could set up "My Space",
"Facebook" pages and also "Twitter" each other :-) Ahh yes, I've never
quite understood the youthful obsession with baring your soul in public and
as many on here know (myself only to well) comments by email without
primeval facial expressions and gestures are fraught with danger!
Too late for me....... :-( It's never to late! ;)
I'll stick to the Rovernet where there's a chance I might:
1. Understand how to function .....and of course how Rovers function
2. Know some people
Eric

Hugh,
Sounds like a great effort by you to introduce the Rover spirit at an early age. Also glad to hear from Bill that there is youthful interest in addition to Dirk's son, Curtis.

Well?I must tell you all,
?
I bought a 1964 2000 for my son Henri a year ago, he?is 16 now and?just?getting his permit to take lessons!
?
His friends think its very cool and wonder?how I?find these great cars!?I told them they find me!
?
One of my?comical American mates told me there should be a law against this kind of child abuse! haha
?
I thought it would be a good father and son project, but so far I've completed all the repairs!
?
He eventually will learn alot from owning a Rover!
He has learned to appreciate?classic cars as?I've had loads over the years!
?
Cheers,
Peter

Hugh,
Sounds like a great effort by you to introduce the Rover spirit at an early
age. Also glad to hear from Bill that there is youthful interest in addition to
Dirk's son, Curtis.

Hello All,
I could not help but weigh in on the youthful interest chatter.
While it is true that my son Curtis has interest in Rovers My youngest do as
well. Either of my 11 year old boys can tell you the difference from a P3 to
a P6 with every thing in between. You will ask why and that is because I
have basically marketed it to them through car shows and them spending time
with me working on the cars. Will it last? Only time will tell. But the
point is that if we want the young to carry on our love for Rover or any
classic car for that matter then we have to market it to them.
The truth is that it is really not about the cars but it is a outlet of both
creativity and a love for things mechanical made long ago. If we want to
pass on our obsessions then we need others the young or young at heart to
truly understand why we do this. It is not just about the cars it is a
exploration of the past on a very personal level. It is about how things
were done when real people built things and how ideas of a few men were
transformed into automobiles and built a world.
Sorry for the ramblings
Dirk

Hugh,
Sounds like a great effort by you to introduce the Rover spirit at an early
age. Also glad to hear from Bill that there is youthful interest in
addition to Dirk's son, Curtis.

Well?I must tell you all,
?
I bought a 1964 2000 for my son Henri a year ago, he?is 16 now
and?just?getting his permit to take lessons!
?
His friends think its very cool and wonder?how I?find these great cars!?I
told them they find me!
?
One of my?comical American mates told me there should be a law against this
kind of child abuse! haha
?
I thought it would be a good father and son project, but so far I've
completed all the repairs!
?
He eventually will learn alot from owning a Rover!
He has learned to appreciate?classic cars as?I've had loads over the years!
?
Cheers,
Peter

Heck, weren't we on this same subject the last time I got Rovernet mail?
I only re-subscribed a few days ago, but it seems like George was trying
valiantly to shed these parts last time I was on. I feel sort of
responsible since I sold George two 3500S's about a month after he
bought three TC's. I should have waited until the fever was passed and
George's head was clear. My wife, however, has no regrets whatsoever and
says George changed her life that afternoon. I think she means she was
glad to see that Rover out of the backyard. If George hadn't offered to
buy them, I never would have been motivated to pull it up the hill along
the ravine three inches at a time with the come-along and forty feet of
chain. My son was taking AP Physics and insisted that I would never get
it out of there in one piece, but I assured him that if you can move an
object three inches, you can damn well move it a hundred feet uphill if
you're pig-headed enough. He's starting medical school next fall, but we
both know I was right and he was wrong at least once in this life. I can
thank George for that.
It's nice to see that all of the best people are still active on Rovernet.

Welcome back, Glen. I wondered where you were. Planning a trip back East nexct year 2010 ( High School? reunion in PA) and I still owe you a beer at least. I am currently working on a 67 Porsche 912 that I plan on driving through all lower 48 states on this trip. The trip of a life time!

A: The original list for Rover car enthusiasts.
Oggetto: Re: [Rovernet - INTERNATIONAL] Young Rovers
Well I must tell you all,
I bought a 1964 2000 for my son Henri a year ago, he is 16 now and just getting his permit to take lessons!
His friends think its very cool and wonder how I find these great cars! I told them they find me!
One of my comical American mates told me there should be a law against this kind of child abuse! haha
I thought it would be a good father and son project, but so far I've completed all the repairs!
He eventually will learn alot from owning a Rover!
He has learned to appreciate classic cars as I've had loads over the years!
Cheers,
Peter

Hugh,
Sounds like a great effort by you to introduce the Rover spirit at an early
age. Also glad to hear from Bill that there is youthful interest in addition to
Dirk's son, Curtis.

Welcome back Glen!!! I was thinking about you the other day, must have been
all this depressing talk about roverguys dying off with no young blood to
replace us!
I too have lots of Rover parts going free to a good home from here on PEI.
The hobby has slowed down somewhat for me, I'm in need of having my lower
ball joints (hips) replaced. I also find writing is a much more comfortable
and rewarding hobby. No break downs or being stranded on a distant hwy. But
i'm glad your back there has been nothing lately about coracles!!!

Hi George,
Where are you in MD? My mother in law lives down that way and I could maybe 'help' you out here :-).
Do you have a tan driver's seat by any chance?
Cheers,

With all this discussion about spare parts and working on our Rovers,
I'm reminded of a couple of items I need to take care of on my 1970 3500S:
I need replacements for the black fuzzy trim strips for each side of
the interior ( "Edge Finisher for Door Aperture at 'BC' Post") # 366148.
I'd also like to find someplace that would re-cover the deteriorated
leather on my steering wheel (or a wheel in better condition). Has
anyone had this done, is pleased with the results and will send me
the shop's address? I don't want to just add a thicker cover over
the top of the present leather. Suggestions?
Kent, I've finally completed the body and mechanical work of
combining my white Rover you helped me find/recover and a green Rover
I brought back from Kentucky. With some white parts, some green
parts and a lot of silver and black primer, the next big job will be
to paint it!

Message-ID: <444033.4308.qm@web34303.mail.mud.yahoo.com>
Warren,
Here's one source for Furflex. It's sold by the yard. Measure your current door furflex. Remember to add 1 - 2 inches under each plastic trim piece. The metal is cut away and the fabric goes underneath the trim and holds it down. The furlex snaps onto the pinchweld. Determine your need to the nearest yard and insert the number.
Moss is a U.S.A. company.

Hi Glen,
Good to see you on Rovernet. Dirk Burrowes, Dave LaChance and I were at
Dirk's shop rebuilding the front calipers for your old yellow 2000TC
just a week ago today. Sounds Dave will have it on the road soon.

Hello folks
when I acquired my 3500S it had a leaky transmission. After I replaced the pan gasket with a new cork one, it still has a leaky transmission. Quite a lot of fluid drains out after the car has been run and then drips thereafter. It looks like it is coming through the screw holes as there are drips on the underside of the pan where the four clamping plates are, but its difficult to see. Are the any tricks to installing the gasket that may help? It does not look like a wonderful fit; I thought about using the gasket in a tube stuff but I am not sure if that would be a good idea. I am new to automatics.
WHY IS THERE NOT A BLOODY DRAIN PLUG?????????
Thanks
Adrian

The right angle brass piece that goes in to the box and drives the cable.
It is different to the 2000 one, so I found out.

Hello Gianluca,
I received your email a few days ago. My bussiness's website has photos in progress of a dark green 3500S I have recently completed restoring. I converted it to have a 5 speed manual transmission in it during the restoration. My own car is red, but I do not have any good photos of that right now. www.gbservicesusa.com

Hello Rovernet,
I have just completed restoring a no AC 3500S that does not have tinted glass. I have 2 other 3500S with AC here that both do have tinted glass.
One is my own car that I am re-restoring after a marginal paint respray a few years ago. The second is a really sound but partly disassembled car that is FOR SALE. It was last on the road in Georgia in 1980. It still has the plate on it. Feel free to contact me via email for details if you are interested in finding out more about the car for sale.

Hi Terry,
I haven't forgotten you on my end of the search. The Mr Shoemaker I sold the '70 Red TC to has left his job, moved from his last home and left no forwarding numbers I can locate-so far. Sorry to fail you on this so far-I still have hopes. An old acquaintance of mine was once a co-worker of the mystery man. I am trying to locate him for help.
Cheers,

Is the last owner of a 1970 Series ll 2000 TC on the list?
I rescued this car from a junkyard between Dahlonega & Cleveland in the NE corner of Georgia where it had probably been sitting for only a few weeks. It's one of the few Series ll TCs imported to the US - 435 VIN #, round instruments etc. and looks to have been red with a tan interior. I bought the car for parts but looking more closely I'm thinking it might be savable so I'd love to talk to the last owner

Slats,
I was talking about you a week or so ago. One of the forums I
participate in sometimes is one for ukulele players. A person whom I
have never directly conversed with offered to send me a new saddle
(bridge piece) for a guitar that I am rebuilding, saying that he guessed
I would be worth the 42-cent investment. This was a very nice gesture,
and I told him how I had located that wainscoting for you and shipped it
to Washington state. It's nice when people can meet online and become
real friends by doing some little favor at a distance.
Tell me again where your high school reunion will be. I like the 912 and
recently read that they were somewhat faster than the Karmann Ghia of
similar heritage!

Message-ID: <d04.52be3efe.3715597c@cs.com>
Hi Adrain
I have a couple thoughts. Always install automatic pan gaskets with no
sealant at all or using petroleum jelly(vaseline) to hold it lined up with the
screw holes. Also, use a torque wrench (inch pound type) to properly torque
down the bolts. Guessing won't due as to tightness. A torque wrench is
mandatory when doing anything with an automatic. Also, does your car have that
crummy float sightglass on the rear corner of the pan? I have seen these
things crack and cause fluid leaks all over the place. Lastly, someone suggested
replacing the seal that goes around the selector shaft as it exits the
transmission case. Thats a good idea too.

How dare you Sir, I demand satisfaction, name your weapon!
I think it's fair to say the US took the development of the Merlin just about as far as it could go...........
whereas we Brits moved on to something called the jet engine, you may have heard of it!
Game, set and match to me I think!
Good to see you're still in sparring form Glen.

And then there's always the possibility of a leaking front seal. That
typically shows up as drips off the bottom of the bell housing, as well
as a nicely rustproofed underbody...

================================
Hi Adrain
I have a couple thoughts. Always install automatic pan gaskets with no
sealant at all or using petroleum jelly(vaseline) to hold it lined up
with the screw holes. Also, use a torque wrench (inch pound type) to
properly torque down the bolts. Guessing won't due as to tightness. A
torque wrench is mandatory when doing anything with an automatic. Also,
does your car have that crummy float sightglass on the rear corner of
the pan? I have seen these things crack and cause fluid leaks all over
the place. Lastly, someone suggested replacing the seal that goes around
the selector shaft as it exits the transmission case. Thats a good
idea too.

Hey Glen!!! Where have you been? Sent out the posse up there in

caliper.
Good to see you're back from sabbatical.

Slats,
I was talking about you a week or so ago. One of the forums I

have never directly conversed with offered to send me a new saddle
(bridge piece) for a guitar that I am rebuilding, saying that he guessed
I would be worth the 42-cent investment. This was a very nice gesture,
and I told him how I had located that wainscoting for you and shipped it
to Washington state. It's nice when people can meet online and become
real friends by doing some little favor at a distance.
Tell me again where your high school reunion will be. I like the 912 and
recently read that they were somewhat faster than the Karmann Ghia of
similar heritage!

Glen,
The reunion will be in New Kensington, Pa, (near Pittsburgh) but I will be touring the entire lower 48 on this trip. At least that is the plan. The 912 is good for about 115? mph as opposed to the 911 of the same period 130 mph. They are essentially a 911 with a 356C engine. I am installing the 1720 big bore kit in this engine. This is a one owner car that has been off the road since 1982 with a jammed transmission. The original owner was a friend that passed away and I bought it from his daughters with the engine in pieces. In fact, I had helped Jim pull the engine and transaxle. It has about 114,000 miles on it and is a 67, yellow.

Hi all,
I'm looking for suggestions on what to look out for with 3500S water
pumps and fan clutches. This is mainly on behalf of Andre Shay, because
of problems he has had with two different pumps on his car this week,
but also partly for me because Andre is helping me recommission another
3500S (one of a pair of P6's rescued from Maine last November by Dirk
Burrowes, Garrett Bourke and me).
Andre's experience, if I understand correctly, is that the NOS pump that
he put on his V8 three years ago started to leak, and he put another
pump on that purportedly had been NOS or rebuilt not long before being
mounted on another V8 (but then in storage for some years) -- and this
second pump soon leaked too. There may be an imbalance in the fan
clutch contributing to the problem, and Andre is also concerned that the
process of tightening the fan clutch onto the shaft might somehow be
changing the clearance on the seal in the pump.
Any ideas? We're thinking of sending a pump out for rebuilding by
Flying Dutchman Water Pumps, but want to make sure that fan clutch
issues don't spoil a third pump...
Thanks,
Steve Manwell

Hi everyone. Seems it's time for my bi-annual jet valve replacement for my HD8 carb on my rover. This will make my 4th one so far on a car I've only put a few hundred miles on. They've been MOSS replacements so far and I've given up on them. They do not hold up to the oxygenated fuels sold here. I spoke to someone that runs a shop and owns a Jag and he has three times to work when he has to replace his. He recommended Joe Curtlo for replacments. Anyone have Joe's email address? Or recommendations for suitible replacements? Thanks.
On a side note, I'm comtemplating selling my Rover. I cannot see in the near future of doing anything with it and with regret, just thinking of selling it. Other reasons of course, but will not bother anybody with that. So if you know anybody in the market.....

Reminds me that I should put the Joe Curto jet and diaphram that I've
had for a while in the HD6 SU on our P4 100. I'm not sure why it hasn't
leaked by now -- maybe originals are better than some of the
replacements. Joe does claim that his jet diaphrams are made of
material compatible with modern fuels.
A few years ago the most reliable way to contact Joe was via phone --
don't know if he is any more active with email these days...

Hi Roland,
I need a Rover part number before tomorrow morning. I may have what you
need. If so, it will be cheap.

> Hi everyone. Seems it's time for my bi-annual jet valve replacement for my HD8 carb on my rover. This will make my 4th one so far on a car I've only put a few hundred miles on. They've been MOSS replacements so far and I've given up on them. They do not hold up to the oxygenated fuels sold here. I spoke to someone that runs a shop and owns a Jag and he has three times to work when he has to replace his. He recommended Joe Curtlo for replacments. Anyone have Joe's email address? Or recommendations for suitible replacements? Thanks.

Hi Slats,
It's the number in the Rover parts book. Doesn't matter. I looked
through three large boxes of NOS SU parts and I don't have any.
Sorry Roland.

Hi Kent,
I wan't trying to be critical with the previous message. I guess it could be interpreted that way though. My apologies. I was flyning? through my e-mails and was a bit abrupt. Had to get on my mower, the sun was shinning! The AUD series is definitely SU. I guess rather than invent new part numbers, Rover used the existing ones.

There was an original Rover part number, 504086, but during the late
seventies Rover decided to supersede the numbers to the SU ones, probably as a
result of acquiring the SU company at around that time.

I have a friend with a 2000TC, who wants to add power steering. It is RHD, and he is out of the US? Any ideas? I would assume that some later P6 in England and Australia had that, as US 3500S had it, in LHD. Does anyone have something from a car they are parting out? I would pay shipping from a RHD country, if someone has it. You may contact me off line at jaguru at bellsouth.net Thank you ,James Dean, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida..

I understand that there is a SAAB exhaust flange gasket that is the same as

Saab that is the same?

James
Ian Wilson at Rover Classics <www.rover-classics.co.uk> does a lot of
these conversions on P6Bs and should be able to advise on what you
need when fitting it to a TC as well as supply the parts.
I don't remember that PAS was ever an option on the four banger cars,
so it will probably need to be a custom job using a V8 steering box.
The main issue would seem to be fitting the pulley and pump as the
pump bracket is bolted to the block on a V8 - you probably will not
be able to do this on a TC without modifications or the use of custom
brackets

I had a link about this somewhere; I'll see if I can find it. Might be a little while. The fellow who did it did it to a RHD p6 2000.
Here's what I remember- the fellow used an SD1 power steering pump (from a 2000, 2300 or 2600.) A 3500s pump (either p6 or SD1) will not fit.
He had to do special machine work to the crankshaft pulley.
The PAS steering box or lines interferes with the windshield wiper gearboxes...he had to swap the entire W/W setup to a p6 3500 style.
It sounds rather involved. That's all I remember at the moment. I imagine there might be substantial differences with this swap on a LHD car.

You could use a pump off a 3500, just turn the impeller around (so it turns like most of these pumps) and mount it facing the usual direction rather than backwards as it is on the 3500

Hi Gianluca,
Marverick was a cheap Ford based on the original Falcon platform.
Available with either a straight six (most common) or 302 V8, only the
Pinto was smaller. Over 500,000 sold in the first year alone, so a very
high volume car. Available at first only as a 2-door coupe, a 4-door
saloon was added in 1971.
I still have your books in a box. I think I'd rather send them to you
in Italia. Give me a shipping address, please.
Roverly,
Kent K.

Dear Kent,
thanks for the information about the car.
Which was the price at that time?
I saw it on a 70'es cars advertising book, a very popular one(Seventies car,I can't remember the printer now) .
I read in the same book that in more or less 1971 the european ford capri was imported and costed more or less 2400 $.
Price of a Volksvagen classic saloon ( the old rabbit I think, by us magiolino) was 1840, and the 1700 ugly coup? was more than 2000 $.
Ford Pinto was in my opinion a beautiful car, I like it.
I also like Chevrolet Monza.
These cars are unknown by us, except Pinto which was seen in several films.
Just yesterday evening, for example, Ford pinto was seen on tv in a 007 Roger Moore early seventies film; at the end the bad businessman and the little chinese servant flied away on it, after they had put on the wings, with a beautiful miss Goodnight in the boot lid.
At the end i went to see in the book, so now I ask you these informations.
Thanks again for the books, I thought you' d forgotten!
I'll contact you off line and I will give you a shipping address.
Best regards, thanks again, Gianluca.

Gianluca,
The car you mention in the Bond movie is actually an American Motors Corporation [AMC] Matador Coupe. The basic shape has a slight resemblance to the Pinto, but it is a much larger car powered by a V-8 engine and rather rare today. All the featured cars in that movie were AMC models as I recall. The handsome red car that did the amazing looping jump over the river was an AMC Hornet.
The Maverick was briefly the smallest and cheapest US Ford model, until the Pinto was introduced. It essentially replaced the Falcon in the Ford lineup, though I think I remember that a bottom-line version of the Torino was badged as a Falcon. I vaguely recall seeing one a long time ago, and I think very few were made.

Dear Jeff,
thanks.
I must tell you that I read some articles about AMC, which, if I remember well, survived till more or less early eighties, and some years before made an alliance with Renault.
I also thought, at the first moment, it were an Amc, but I was not sure and having a look at the book about 70es cars I found the Pinto, so for me it was the Pinto.
I remember very well some Amc cars, for example the strange Amc Gremlin, which was also on the book, and the also strange Amc Pacer similar to a space ship.
Amc pacer was said to be an ugly car, especially for the rear window, which did not matche with the other glasses of the car, but I think it was only very strange.
These cars , in my opinion, were very new and maybe people was not prepared to accept them, just like , for example, Ford sierra which was said to be early for its times.
Cars like Amc Gremlin belonged to a new species, unknown by us, being half a wagon and half a coupe, but being also less sportly than a reliant scimitar.
I saw here in Rome, in a garage nearby my home in Via Fucini, an Amc which could be a Gremlin or also a Matador, I can not remember ther model now, but it was sitting since more or less ten years because of lack of an automatic gearbox.
I will pass there and i will have a look, maybe we will speak about again.
To end, I would like to know if these cars are still common in US.
Please let me know.
Best regards, hear you soon, Gianluca.

I browse eBay for old Rambler and AMC cars routinely (I like those big
old pink station wagons), and there have been quite a number of Matadors
surfacing lately. The main problem with AMC cars of that vintage is that
the interiors were absolutely dreadful.
Best looking Matadors were the NASCAR machines driven by Bobby Allison
and Mark Donahue.
http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3290/2591627732_d6bb404e7f.jpg?v=0 Some
colorful stories, too. Such as Penske convincing AMC to put their part
numbers on Porsche 917 disc brakes, thereby introducing four-wheel discs
to Nascar. Or the Matador win that was allowed to stand even after
NASCAR found roller cam followers under the valve covers post-race.
Also the first NASCAR vehicle with power steering.
Very few Mavericks survive except for restored drag racers. They may
have rusted out or were simply junked out of lack of love. The Pinto was
actually a very decent little car, aside from the exploding gas tank
issue. I was broadsided in one and survived. Not a bad first attempt by
Ford at a really "small" car (for them). Not many Pintos around, either.
I'm always very surprised when I see one on the road, even in Pennsylvania.

Hi gianluca,
The Ford Pinto was a nice car, but got a very bad reputation because of one rear end fatal accident and law suit. I have had three 1971 Pinto's and in fact I still have a very clean original one. the early Pinto's used the Capri engines, both the 1600 and the 2000 cc versions. the problem with the rear end collision thing was that most of them were either hatch backs or station wagons that did not have any barrier between the trunck area and the apssengers. If a fire resulted it came into the passenger area very quickly. they later had a re-call and put a deflector over the fuel tank. Great engines!

Hi Guys,
Watch the movie again...carefully. There are two different cars with
wings. The one bursting from the hangar is a Matador. The one seen
flying at a distance is a Pinto. Not trick photography...the Matador
was a mock up. The Pinto was the real thing
I worked all summer when I was sixteen to buy the watch that James Bond
wore (in the books, not the movies). Paid US$300 for the watch in
1963. I still wear it every day and it keeps pretty good time.
Somewhere in the library I've got the article from Hot Rod Magazine on
the flying Pinto....

Hi Kent,
The flying Pinto was a 1971 and was flying in the Oxnard area while attempting to get certified. They had difficulty with the air quality board trying to decide if it should be certified as a car or a plane. The engineers that designed it were killed in a crash near I believe the old closed Camarillo AFB. I was living in Camarillo, CA at that time and was stationed at the nearby Point Mugu Naval Air station. I believe that it was actually housed at the Camarillo field, which later became a civilian airport of all things. It was quite a protracted battle for that piece of real estate. the 71 Pinto's were the most powerful of the early Pinto's, having 100 hp stock with the 2000 cc engine. In 72-73 the 2000 cc engine was de-tuned to 85 hp. Smaller valves and lower compression 8.5 vs 9.2 for the 71's.

Hi All,
I had a "Senior Moment" during my last post. It was the "Old Oxnard AFB (Air Farce Base)" located very near Camarillo. It did later become the Camarillo airport. The Pinto was mated with a Cessna Skymaster which was a twin engine aircraft with one engine in front (Pulling) and the other in the rear (Pushing). This plane was used extensively in Vietnam as it had the two engine capability. One of the advantages of this configuration was that it did not have the very severe asymmetric thrust experienced in light twin engine aircraft when one engine is lost. The standing joke in aircraft circles is that?if you loose one engine on a light twin, the other engine is guaranteed to take you to the scent of the accident.
The rear section with the pusher engine still in place and twin boom tails was attached to the Pinto. The car and the aircraft sections separated during a take-off and the two developers perished. At least one of them was a former Northrup engineer.

Glen,
The 71 Pinto that I have is a really sweet little car. The original owner would not even take it out in the rain. It has just a little over 100,000 miles on it. I pulled the head and had it hard seated and stellite valves installed. It developed a problem with the stater gears being chewed up after about 2,000 miles. After going through two of them I decided that the flex plate had been replaced and that it was mis-manufactured. It seems that there was a reinforcing plate spot welded on each side. this caused the ring gear to be approximately 1/8 inch too far from the starter gear. I took?a new?flex plate to a welding shop and had the ring gear moved forward. All that remains is to reinstall the transmission. It is an automatic, hence the flex plate instead of a fly wheel. After taking many measurements under the car, I remembered that I had a spare engine in my shop and took measurements from the fly wheel to use as a reference.
This particular car was the deluxe version with extra chrome trim around the wheel wells and rear windows, plus a factory roof top luggage rack on a hatchback. The rear windows also opened, not all of them did. All three, 71 Pinto's that I had, were hatchbacks. The first two were 4-speed manual transmissions. I drove it to Calif. (1,000 miles) and averaged 27-28 mpg and 65 mph for the trip. One of my Sons used it for a while, until it chewed up?the first new flex plate that I installed and I towed it back for further research. This was before I discovered the source of the problem.

There was, however, a flying Ford Pinto: http://www.transeum.com/weird-car/would-you-go-flying-in-a-ford-pinto.html
I browse eBay for old Rambler and AMC cars routinely (I like those big old pink station wagons), and there have been quite a number of Matadors surfacing lately. The main problem with AMC cars of that vintage is that the interiors were absolutely dreadful.
Best looking Matadors were the NASCAR machines driven by Bobby Allison and Mark Donahue. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3290/2591627732_d6bb404e7f.jpg?v=0 Some colorful stories, too. Such as Penske convincing AMC to put their part numbers on Porsche 917 disc brakes, thereby introducing four-wheel discs to Nascar. Or the Matador win that was allowed to stand even after NASCAR found roller cam followers under the valve covers post-race. Also the first NASCAR vehicle with power steering.
Very few Mavericks survive except for restored drag racers. They may have rusted out or were simply junked out of lack of love. The Pinto was actually a very decent little car, aside from the exploding gas tank issue. I was broadsided in one and survived. Not a bad first attempt by Ford at a really "small" car (for them). Not many Pintos around, either. I'm always very surprised when I see one on the road, even in Pennsylvania.

Hello all,My 1967 TC has no brake lights! With the engine off and ignition on I removed the wires from the brake system in line pressure switch and touched them together and I got brake lights. I then checked the switch with an Ohm meter and got continuity when I pressed the brake pedal!But when I connect the wires It does not light the brake lights!Is the switch braking down under load? strange!Is this a common switched used on other British cars or a Rover only part?Cheers,Peter

Peter,
Touch the wires together without the switch involved. If the lights then light, it is the switch. It is possible for the switch to read continuity with an ohm meter, but not be able to carrly the current load for the lights because of poor (burnt) contacts. the ohm meter uses very little current and needs little surface contact. Think, very thin wire as opposed to a thick wire for the lights. The switch does nothing but connect the two wires together, so touching them together when disconnected from the switch serves the same purpose.

Hello all,
My 1967 TC has no brake lights!
With the engine off and ignition on I removed the wires from the
brake system in line pressure switch and touched them together and I got
brake lights.
I then checked the switch with an Ohm meter and got continuity
when I pressed the brake pedal!
But when I connect the wires It does not light the brake lights!
Is the switch braking down under load? strange!
Is this a common switched used on other British cars or a Rover
only part?
Cheers,
Peter

What you really want is more of a parallel circuit. The lights to go through the relay, but the relay operated by the brake switch.

Beck Arneley part number 201-0103. You can order from your local NAPA.
Advance Auto parts also have them, 12.99, same part number.
Beware that there are some Lucas switches which do not last very long. Also the switches can work badly, is as such that that it will work only when you stamp your foot on the brakes. Easy to change over, just screw out the old one then screw in the new one. Bleed the brakes afterwards.
My dad in Australia owns a 1972 Rambler Matador, right hand drive, with a 360 ci motor. It only has about 45000 miles on the clock.
I seem to recall that someone was asking about split Rubber boots for Di Dion tubes a few weeks ago. An interim patch up for these is to wrap black plastic with some duct tape around it, to keep the dust out. This worked for me for about 8 years before I got it fixed properly, and was recomended to me by an old English Mechanic.
James.

In Rick Astley's book, MGB Electrical systems, he recommends two different brands of relays. One is TYCO V4F and the other is Omron type GHJN. these are both four connector relays. Terminals 85 Ground and 86 Coil power are used for the coil connections from the brake light switch. The other two contacts 30 Power and 87 Brake lights are used to power the lights. There may be a fifth terminal 87A that is normally closed and is not used in this circuit. These relays are about 1 inch square and can come with mounting tabs. It is recommended to install them with the terminals down. Run a fused (20A) wire from the battery to terminal 30 and conncet the original brake lighjt wire to terminial 87.
