Subject: [Rovernet ] this is rather alarming or is it an April Fool.
Message-ID: <73D9BF72DC20B0488083C198B9B2FD16132EF6@Server.adoptsec.local>
After midnight last night I heard this dramatic news and have had to rewrite this week's blog at extremely short notice. However, this seemed so important that it should be the main feature of today's newsletter.
As you may have already heard by now the EU have passed a new law which was backed by the UK Secretary of State for Transport banning cars over 20 years of age from being driven on the roads.
This will have such a profound impact upon the classic car <http://www.classiccarsforsale.co.uk/classic-car-news-item.php/i/y/a/The+end+of+Classic+Cars%3F/id/126> owners across Europe that this week it seemed inappropriate for me for me to continue in my usual jovial style.
Below is the statement that was given to the commons yesterday to explain the reasoning behind EU Directive 2011/35/T.
'Having looked at a number of studies, conducted across a wide variety of countries, it becomes clear that cars over 20 years old have far higher CO2 emissions than their contemporary counterparts. Furthermore accidents involving pedestrians and motorists more likely to lead to a fatality in cars over 20 years old than in cars produced since 2008.
It would be remiss of the European Union not to consider both the environmental and human costs that older vehicles present to the public. This decision will no doubt be vilified by motoring organisations as a curtailment of motorists freedoms, however looking at the statistics there was simply no way in good conscience, we could not act.'
This is obviously not going to come into effect immediately and is set to begin from the 1st of April 2013 so there is time for people to comply. So far the Department for Transport has not addressed the specific concerns of classic car enthusiasts but one would imagine they will need to fairly quickly as this is going to have serious consequences for many businesses as well as enthusiasts.
The act doesn't mean it will be impossible to own or drive a car over 20 years of age but rather that the rules governing it will become much stricter.
In future anyone wishing to keep a car over 20 years of age will have to register the car as off road permanently and will then need to apply for a special license to drive the car to events. This licence will need to be applied for three months before attending any event and a maximum of 5 licenses will be granted per year.
It is not yet clear what this will mean for people competing in motor sporting fixtures or whether the licenses will be granted per car or per person.
Rather outrageously the DfT spokesperson I spoke to claimed this would not make a big difference to the classic car scene and that they were rather more concerned that low income families who owned older cars were able to replace their aging vehicle with no additional financial outlay.
I'm sure I will be writing more about this at a later date as I imagine the classic car world will be abuzz with little else for the next two years.
I have included a link below to a website with full details on EU Directive 2011/35/T. Anyone wishing to buy a copy of the directive for ?20 can do so with a credit card but please check that it expires at noon on 1st April 2011.
More details to follow as soon as I have them.

My apologies if this message is a duplicate, I sent it already with the wrong address. Anyhow, hello to the list!
I am currently pursuing a P5 Mk3 and I was wondering if anyone has any useful suggestions for items to look for.
I have owned/own a number of British cars, so I know that I need to watch out for:
1.) Rust
2.) Rust
3.) Rust
4.) Oxidized Steel
5.) Any inclination to think I can rescue a project car and not end up upside-down financially.

To what else should I be paying particularly close attention?

On the P5, the condition of body and interior are paramount. Unless you
do your own welding (and do it well), you can easily spend five figures
getting the body decent.
Leather was never cheap, either.
Mechanically, the P5B is much simpler to work on IMHO, unless you are
good friends with an old Land Rover mechanic who has worked on NADA 109's.
Rubber is another consideration. Most of it is readily available, but
replacing front and rear screen gaskets is very difficult and
replacement glass is VERY expensive.
Rear bumpers go bad. Wadhams has replacements, but again, very expensive.
Nice P5's do come up for sale in North America. Where are you?
Roverly,
Kent K.

Thanks for the input, Kent. That's about what I've gathered thus far.

Indeed. Of course, locating P5Bs in N. America is much more difficult
than locating a 3-Liter car, too. Were any officially imported?

Oh joy! I know I sure was nervous when I had my Riley's windscreen
rubbers replaced, given that I had no idea where I would locate
replacement glass if I needed it. Add a higher degree of difficulty and
a higher risk of financial ruin and it doesn't sound better!

I am in New Hampshire, but I would actually prefer a well fettled car
that I could pick up at a distance and drive home. Why? I'm a glutton
for punishment, I guess. Our trips thus far:
1.) Seattle to NH - 1972 Chevy C20 Pickup
2.) Phoenix to NH - 1971 MGB GT
3.) Cleveland to NH - 1969 MGC GT
4.) Houston to NH - 1974 MGB
I'm certain it's ill-advised on all sorts of levels, but I'm normally
careful about pre-trip inspections and preparations, and it's been fun
so far.

No, which probably isn't quite what you wanted to hear. Good LHD examples
have been known to turn up in Europe now and again, but
1 They tend to be spendy
2 It would be very difficult to drive one all the way home

Well, I actually am a bit of a contrarian, so I think I'd actually
prefer a 3-Litre. Perhaps one of each...
As for driving home from Europe, I could always go the James Bond route
a'la Lotus Esprit....
Of course, it could be fun to tool around Europe for a while and ship
one back, but the LHD cars really do seem to be quite expensive, and the
RHD cars have battled with the Damp their whole lives, so...

P5 pre-purch check points - 2 cents:
1. Engine & suspension sub-assembly corrosion. The beam mounting the rear ends of the torsion bars is thin in the middle and the tension exerted by the bars will cause a poor one to go V-shaped. Fixable with quarter inch steel plate reinforcement.2. Burnt exhaust valves - especially #6 at the back - poor water circulation in the block. A compression check is mandatory imo.3. Blown rear main oil seal - early P5's had a unique seal design - will piss oil like crazy if shot. An engine out job to rectify.4. Overheating - due to general causes - clagged radiator and engine block. In a hot climate this will always be a concern - so even if in top shape figure on putting in an electric fan to help. Remove core plugs to blast out the water jacket - simple flushing won't do it.5. Worn 1st and 2nd gears - 1st is a quintessential donkey gear and if the car was owned by little old ladies it gets over-used to the point of bearing rumbling pain. Gearbox overhaul required - where are the parts to come from?6. Steering - in all its knock-kneed wonder - lot of joints and rubber bushes to wear. Think heaviness, tyre wear and vagueness.7. Interior - leather seats. If neglected..... Headlining condition - if reasonably OK just leave it. Carpets - aagh! - can be in a really manky state.8. Interior - dash. Can be restored at home quite easily - so some good news.9. Window rubber - bad rubber can be replaced but doing so is not one for Bubba's Autoglass. E.g. for the front the whole dash has be pulled back. A big budget item then.10. Rear spring hangers - they separate. No biggie with the right replacement parts.11. Rear lights - they fade and crack in the sun.12. Chrome - front and rear bumpers corrode.13. Die-cast chrome - deteriorate over time - impossible[?] to restore. E.g. petrol filler cap.14. Differential hub - bomb proof - unless run for years without oil. Replaceable with good used from a Land Rover.....for an "interesting" drive.15. Brakes - corroded brake lines at the rear - very common. Front disc brake rotors thin and cracked. Front disc pads [Dunlop? on early Mk 1] could be hard to get new pads - may have to have the existing ones repadded - a bit of a mission. Master cylinder condition? Brake booster works? [Replaceable with an aftermkt item - so not a biggie if the original is shot and parts are not available.] Rear brakes - good news - no probs o/hauling these items.16. Rear hubs - blown oil seal[s]. A bit of a mission to replace.17. Body rust. A-pillar base - nasty - windscreen out to rectify - easy to conceal by dodgy seller. Base of front wings/fenders - nasty - really gets into the base unit by the time it pops out on the surface. Jack point mounts - don't trust em until the entire underside has been inspected with a jabbing screwdriver. C pillar, rear door shuts and front of rear wings/fenders - nasty, nasty, nasty. Rear of rear wings/fenders - nasty. Rear valance, battery tray, boot/trunk floor and wind-down spare tyre gubbins - hi-dee-hi.18. Missing, broken or munted trim bits - e.g. headlamp rings, hubcaps, etc. Stick out like a pitbull's if missing or in a poor state.19. Minor controls - gearlever linkage, switches - operation and integrity. [Gearlever has a pin with a retaining clip. The clip can pop off on a worn pin - a lot of fun shifting gear on the freeway only to have the whole box of tricks collapse on the floor. Switches are Lucas 50 year olders - esp lighting switches - they can get pleasantly "warm" even if nominally working.]
There's more but the best advice is to get one in basically good shape rather than cowboying up to attempt to restore a complete dunger.

Hello Tom,
I own several P5s and Yes, they can be a real pain to sort out. However they are very nice cars once sorted. I live in Fitchburg MA, and we may have spoken but I have a short term memory, What are we talking about again? Anyway you should plan on coming to RoveAmerica held on June 2nd through the 5th and see the range of P5s and other Rovers present. If you send me an email with your contact information I would be happy to have you down to see a P5 and or help with your selection of a car. And for the record I say a P5 is an easier car to deal with then a P5B and I have both.
Good Luck
Dirk

I have 5000+ miles on my engine rebuild. So now it's time to work on
better brakes. If I get the four pot calipers from rimmers for solid discs
will that make a marked improvement? I really don't want to pay to ship
vented rotors across the Atlantic. It's also my understanding that Jag
brakes won't work with 14" wheels.

You'll need 15 inch wheels for Jag brakes - I don't think they can be squeezed under 14.
Vitesse brakes fit though and are a big improvement over the standard set up.
Lightening the car also helps with braking, as do rear disc brake conversions.
I thought all V8 SD1s had Nivos when they left the factory - certainly the ones that came to Australia did.
Cheers
Rob

Hi Nick,
I have Vitesse brakes for you. Rotors are new. Calipers will need a
rebuild...I may have the kits.
Nivomats were standard on all SD1 except 2300 and 2000 as far as I know.
They are wonderful when they work and when they don't they jack the back
end up in the air and become rock hard. Two options for replacement: air
shocks from an early Ford Courier pickup or 2300 springs and shocks from
Rimmers. 2300 springs give same ride height as our NAS cars, but Rimmers
may sell lower ones, can't remember. For hauling all those potted
plants, I'd go with the air shocks. Seems like we talked about this
years ago? My brain is getting real fuzzy. Email me off list.
Roverly,
Kent K.

I converted to the 4 pot system soon after I purchased my SD1 17 years
ago and the improvement is significant to say the least. I highly
recommend it and they bolt on easily. If you do decide to purchase them
get a few sets of pads; saves on shipping in the future.
Also, if you haven't done it, the rubber brake line that attaches to the
caliper should be replaced. As a result of age they collapse internally,
severely restricting fluid from moving away from the caliper, causing
brake drag and lockup. (Just my experience). Mine looked fine on the
outside but...
It's worth the investment, especially if they've never been replaced.
Hope this helps.

I have had many Rover 3500 SD1's and they all had bad brakes especially when
it is raining. The one I have now I put the master cylinder and booster out
of a Land Rover Discovery in and it made a great improvement (it is a dual
diaphragm type). Now I just need to figure out how to make the 4 pot
calipers work.

Thanks for all the replys guys. I'm sure mine has the stock springs that
go with Nivomats. Coupled with some other kind of shock they bottom out
once in a while. I think I'm going to go with Rimmers stock shock and
Kents idea of using Ford Courier air shocks. I'm not sure how you came up
with Vitesse brakes Kent; but Im glad you did and I sent you a p m about
those. I'll post something when all is sorted. Nick [ not quite alone in a

Hi Michael,
Glad to hear that there's someone else on the East Coast with a
running SD1. We have 2, an auto which is my wife's everyday car and a
slightly modified 5 speed.
I'll be taking the 5 speed to Rovamerica after I have put in the
Series 2 European headlamps which I have finally obtained.
I think it's time to upgrade the front brakes, so I'm interested in
the 4 pot calipers. Do these calipers use the same solid rotors as
the 2 pot?
Ted Schumaker at TS imports like to use a modified proportioning
valve for the rear brakes - he claims it is better that the stock
one. Anyone have any ideas?

Message-ID: <BLU160-ds3B9FD57F3B3D606DA5472B5A60@phx.gbl>
Some inattentive punk hit me from the rear while I was driving my 3500S.
Luckily, he hit the right hand vertical rubber strip or pad on the rear bumper overrider, but nothing else.
This pad is now dented and I would like to replace it.
Does anyone have another?
Thanks.
Albert
PS.
There is an overrider for sale on eBay for a TC 2000 and I have asked the seller if it will fit the 3500S.
Does anyone here know the answer?

The NADA Rover 3500S has a different bumper profile than the TC 2000. You
might want to check Scott's Old Car Rubber first to see if he has them.
Where are you located?

The Vitesse 4 pots need to use the vented rotors as they're spaced further apart, the non Vitesse series 2 cars that had 4 pots used solid rotors which I believe were the same as the series 1 cars. I don't think the series 2 cars ever made it to the US. Nor the Vitesse, which was never improted into Australia either (although there are a very small number of private imports).
I use the twin pipe Vitesse calipers with the Vitesse pressure proportioning valve which is different to the rest of the SD1 range. This works fine, but my car is reasonably light (under 1200kg).
Cheers
Rob

Hey Dermot -- Good to hear from you. Yes I have an SD1 (turmeric) and
have always loved it. BTW, I purchased a set of the European headlights
myself years ago but never installed them. Decided against it for
originality sake. Myself and a gentleman named Carlos from Northern
Virginia went in on 2 sets and a bunch of other parts from a junkyard in
Spain which apparently had a bunch of SD1 parts. His brother was in
Spain and acquired the items for us. Of course shipping killed us. You
may be familiar with Carlos; he's also an old SD1 diehard.
Actually, we spoke many years ago when I called you concerning parts. I
assume you're the same Dermot Harvey with Spectra.
I won't make Roveramerica this year but maybe next year.
On the brakes question, I used the solid calipers that are on the car
and have had absolutely no problems.

Hi Michael,
Glad to hear that there's someone else on the East Coast with a
running SD1. We have 2, an auto which is my wife's everyday car and a
slightly modified 5 speed.
I'll be taking the 5 speed to Rovamerica after I have put in the
Series 2 European headlamps which I have finally obtained.
I think it's time to upgrade the front brakes, so I'm interested in
the 4 pot calipers. Do these calipers use the same solid rotors as
the 2 pot?
Ted Schumaker at TS imports like to use a modified proportioning
valve for the rear brakes - he claims it is better that the stock
one. Anyone have any ideas?

Message-ID: <FB84990D7056EE43B14E2DE7617F878A055AC976@exchange.europe.plesseysemi.com>
Rover identified the springs used for SD1 models with one or two coloured stripes.
I believe the NAS rear spring is CRC1590 with one yellow and one white stripe (the
same as UK 3500 models until about 1981 when the Nivomat was improved and
spring changed). It would be great for someone to confirm my understanding of
the spring codes used for NAS SD1s. The Nivomat spring is 'soft' as an element
of the spring action is done by the Nivomat unit (which is a wonderful piece of
engineering).
The Boge part number you quote is the correct Nivomat for the SD1 - both as the
OEM part and a Boge replacement, the link below to a PDF of a Boge catalogue for
north American cars includes the Rover 3500 and that part.

After umpteen years of restoration and repairs I am seeking the path of least resistance (literally). With a rebuilt engine, a Delco alternator (replacing the Prince of Darkness), and just about "new everything" under the bonnet; and with a number of British specialists having a go at it----no one has yet been able to solve the mysterious battery drain from my blue beast ('70 3500S P6B). If I keep it on the battery tender when parked in the garage, there is no problem. But I can't let it sit for more than a day and a half before the battery goes dead and I have to recharge.
With all of the above in mind, I would appreciate it if someone could perhaps email a simple (remember I'm pretty much an electrical novice) schematic of how to wire in a kill switch close to the battery in the boot. My goal is to run the wiring into the driver's side glove box for easy 'on/off'. I would appreciate information about the gauge of the electrical cable as well as what type/who/where carries a good cut-off switch and tips on installation, running the wire, attachment points, etc. (website links would be appreciated).
Thanks in advance for any help.

Personally I would try to rectify the problem, its fairly simple to trace. After checking that the alternator is charging well ( 13-14.5V) and the battery is ok ( battery testers are not reliable, use a hydrometer to test each cell as you may have a weak one or more)
Two methods, multimeter or a simple test light bulb. You could use a 10 watt bulb in its bulb holder with two wires coming off it. Either way you should disconnect the negative lead on the battery and make sure that all interior and trunk lights are off, Simply remove the bulbs, this would show a drain when testing whilst you gain access. Now, use the bulb tester or multimeter (set to MA .. milli amps) and connect one end to battery negative post and other to battery negative lead. If the bulb is lit then you have a drain. If the multimeter reads 0.03 or more you have a drain. Now to find the cause. Go to fuse box, pull out a fuse at a time to see if light goes out or meter reading reduces. This will highlight what circuit or system is causing the drain. If you go through each fuse and no difference I would disconnect the alternator first to try and then starter motor second. Simple electrics on these cars so it shouldn't be a mystery.
Any difficulty come back to me.

Spot on Rich. 1 gets 2 that if the battery is OK and charging properly, it's something like a glovebox or boot light switch that isn't doing its job and leaving the bulb permanently illuminated.RS

> Personally I would try to rectify the problem, its fairly simple to trace. After checking that the alternator is charging well ( 13-14.5V) and the battery is ok ( battery testers are not reliable, use a hydrometer to test each cell as you may have a weak one or more)
> Two methods, multimeter or a simple test light bulb. You could use a 10 watt bulb in its bulb holder with two wires coming off it. Either way you should disconnect the negative lead on the battery and make sure that all interior and trunk lights are off, Simply remove the bulbs, this would show a drain when testing whilst you gain access. Now, use the bulb tester or multimeter (set to MA .. milli amps) and connect one end to battery negative post and other to battery negative lead. If the bulb is lit then you have a drain. If the multimeter reads 0.03 or more you have a drain. Now to find the cause. Go to fuse box, pull out a fuse at a time to see if light goes out or meter reading reduces. This will highlight what circuit or system is causing the drain. If you go through each fuse and no difference I would disconnect the alternator first to try and then starter motor second. Simple electrics on these cars so it shouldn't be a mystery.

A likely cause of a flat battery like that is a misaligned switch for the
Boot (trunk) light that allows the light to stay on all the time. Try taking
the bulb out and see if that makes a difference.

Reading carefully what is already written and 43 years with Jaguar
(Prince's permenant residence), I would attend to the switches etc as
suggested.
Another issue I have had on a few cars, is the alternator
regulator/diode leaking to earth, the alternator is/was charging fine,
but when stored this was draining. Simply disconnect your battery,
remove the "battery wire" at the alternator (usually under a bolted
treminal), Lucas was a large spade on some, insulate that wire,
reconnect the battery, see what happens.

Would one of these work for you. You would have to open the boot and take off the battery lid to operate it, but it might work until you find out where the draw is. I am thinking of getting on myself as my Rover does not like to start if it sits for a few weeks.

Battery drain, I think you might find that the trunk or hood light switch
has been fitted upside down, they are a Mercury switch.

I agree on all of the past suggestions..to add,
I have a 85 Subaru Wagon turbo 4x4, only 100,000 miles, and a 87 Audi
Wagon 5000 doing the same thing..
I was told that there simply could be a polarized Fusebox, that needs
to been researched. This info came from one who has had to replace
several through the years, for just that reason. I haven't pursued
this avenue, as mine are slow drain.

I've had my best luck by pulling the ground clamp on the battery and running a test light between it and the post. Then pull fuses one by one til the light goes out. A wiring schematic will show all things powered by that circuit. Unplug them one by one til the light goes out.

First and foremost, I want to thank everyone who has contributed to helping me solve this problem with the electrics----a great group of people.
I will attack the fuse box tomorrow with the test light. In the meantime a couple of answers to some diagnostic questions and a little more information which might lead to additional input.
Yes the car has a modern radio but it appears to turn completely off when I shut off the ignition. There is no power antenna. The boot light switch is actually removed----mine is a little, brittle spring loaded affair which I have yet to repair, so that light can't be drawing any current when the boot is closed. I wonder about two things-----the clock runs off the battery (the OEM Kinzele) and I can't imagine it is enough of a drain. I also installed a 'faux' alarm system---i.e., I picked up a little red flashing diode at Radio Shack which I wired into one of the fuse lines-----it looks as though there is an armed alarm, but it is just a dummy light. As with the clock I can't imagine it could be drawing enough power to drain a battery in 1.5 days.
Thanks again for all the help
Lance La Certe, Psy.D.

Very good suggestion Steve. Either a test lamp or an ampmetter of the proper rating. I believe that this is what is normally refered to as "trouble shooting". Process of eleimination.

I've had my best luck by pulling the ground clamp on the battery and running a test light between it and the post. Then pull fuses one by one til the light goes out. A wiring schematic will show all things powered by that circuit. Unplug them one by one til the light goes out.??

Lance, I haven't followed this entire thread so I don't know if you've eliminated the battery itself as the problem. I've experienced these kinds of symptoms in two of my modern(ish) daily drivers in the past couple of years, and in both cases it eventually got bad enough I realized it had to be the battery failing; replacing it cured the problem. But the initial symptoms were that the battery would drain if the car was left for a period of days, leading me to think it was an electrical drain of some kind.
Good luck -

Subject: [Rovernet ] '62 P5 needs rescuing in San Francisco
Message-ID: <web-1330110@rymes.net>
Hello,
There is a '62 Rover P5 that needs rescuing in Palo Alto, or it's
headed to the scrapper tomorrow. The Craigslist ad has expired and is
no longer available, but I have been in touch with the seller, and had
a fellow MG owner take some photos, which are here:
https://picasaweb.google.com/112286688933252866984/P5
The asking price was $500, but they might just let it go for nothing
to be rid of it? The car is complete, but has been sitting for a long
time, so will need everything, but does not appear to have corrosion
issues. Shipping is likely too much for me, given that I am on the
wrong side of the country, but a local might want to pick this up.
Anyhow, I hate to see this car crushed, but I don't think I can rescue
it. I asked the seller to wait and see if I could muster someone to
rescue it, so here's part of the effort.
I don't want to give out their number, though, but I'm happy to handle
information requests. Basically, though, a local person needs to go
get it and soon. Don't know if that might be anyone on this list, but
thought I'd ask.
Many thanks,
Tom

I am sure they had some sort of contact info in the craigslist ad. I am interested. I would rather contact the owner direct.

If anybody needs me to, I can talk to Maric for you. I've spoken to him before. He has a better one that runs, this one has been sitting in his driveway for a long time, it's pretty rough. He also has SD1s in his drive. I pass by his house from time to time. I think he may be moving as saturday he was having a garage sale. Last time his burgandy one was at the Palo Alto Show, I had mine, Robert Mortensen had his '66, Dick Griffth has his silver '66 coupe, Geoff brought his freshly painted one as well. 5 total P5s! I think it was the largest P5 gathering on the westcoast ever.

One of the jobs needed on my 2000 TC is to fix or replace my heater's

Is there a stronger blower motor available that will fit the Smiths

Just because I am a really nice guy, I will rebuild the fuel pump and convert it to solid state (optical trigger) for this vehicle for the cost of shipping.for whoever rescues it. I just hate to see a P-5 gone.

***************************************
Hello,
There is a '62 Rover P5 that needs rescuing in Palo Alto, or it's
headed to the scrapper tomorrow. The Craigslist ad has expired and is
no longer available, but I have been in touch with the seller, and had
a fellow MG owner take some photos, which are here:
https://picasaweb.google.com/112286688933252866984/P5
The asking price was $500, but they might just let it go for nothing
to be rid of it? The car is complete, but has been sitting for a long
time, so will need everything, but does not appear to have corrosion
issues. Shipping is likely too much for me, given that I am on the
wrong side of the country, but a local might want to pick this up.
Anyhow, I hate to see this car crushed, but I don't think I can rescue
it. I asked the seller to wait and see if I could muster someone to
rescue it, so here's part of the effort.
I don't want to give out their number, though, but I'm happy to handle
information requests. Basically, though, a local person needs to go
get it and soon. Don't know if that might be anyone on this list, but
thought I'd ask.
Many thanks,
Tom

Hi Scott,
If it will help on the Rover Australia group is a chap called Bob
Webber. I know he has two P5 as parts cars, he is over here in the West

I bought the Rover today to save it from the crusher. The sellers are
really nice and were happy to get it in to the hands of a P5 fan.

Hi folks,
After what seems to be a positive outcome with the Grey car in SF, I am fairly certain that I will purchase the owner's second car, a Maroon P5, which looks to be in OK shape, but has significant cosmetic and likely lots of sorting needs. That is, provided that Rich didn't buy it already!
Anyhow, I was hoping someone might be able to recommend a shop or a person to whom I could bring the car in the SF area and have the brakes gone through, plus a once-over for the engine and Transmission in order to get it out on the road again.
Any thoughts?
Tom

Thanks, Albert. I also stumbled across these folks:

They might be more familiar with the engine, but likely nothing else!

I can recommend my guy who is helping me with my 3500s without reservation.
He's a general British car nut and very easy to work with.
He has just opened his own shop in Mountain View/Palo Alto (near Costco if
that helps at all) and Im sure he'd be happy for the business :).

Hope this helps.

Richard,
Congradulations. The offer to rebuild the fuel pump still stands if you choose to do it. Of course it may work (?). As I said earlier, I would convert it to solid state, either positive (as supplied) or negative ground, your choice. I recently re-built the one in my 63/64 P-5. One half did not funtion at all.

Thanks Slats,
I have not even thought of what I was going to do with it yet. I have
only ever owned P5Bs and this is my first 3 Litre.
I just thought any thing was better than the scrapyard for a P5 that
was rough but pretty intact.
Cheers,
Richard

Hi Richard,
As far as I know , the P5B has a mechanical fuel pump on the engine. The P-5 uses a double ended SU pump mounted in the trunk (upper right). One end is for normal use and the other is for the reserve portion of the tank (and as a reserve pump). The component's of these pumps except for the base is pretty well identical to the single MGB pumps. I would normally charge about $200.00 to rebuild one of these, depending upon parts needed. I got carried away with generosity, but the offer is still good. A single unit SU pump is normally about $100. If a pump is already in excellent condition, the solid state conversion is $55. Let me know when or if you choose to do this. I am in no rush.

Thanks Slats,
I have not even thought of what I was going to do with it yet. ?I have ?
only ever owned P5Bs and this is my first 3 Litre.
I just thought any thing was better than the scrapyard for a P5 that ?
was rough but pretty intact.
Cheers,

LOL I went from owning 1 new Rover on Monday (the Gray one) to two on
Tuesday (the Burgundy one too) and today I stepped aside on both to
let them go to better homes, so now I have none.
Anyone know of a Rover P5 Coupe for sale in the US to ease my pain? :)

Amusingly, I was on the opposite side of this, as the only person interested in the Maroon car and trying to save the grey one. Then, there was sudden interest in the maroon car because of my efforts to save the grey one!
So, where's the grey one going now?

Hi, all.
As a Yahoo email account holder, I can't tell if a non-Yahoo email account holder can see pictures posted on our back-up list or post them. I "believe" that a person might have to be a Yahoo email account holder to post pictures.
I was wondering if some non-Yahoo email account holders would travel to the website and attempt to read and post photos. I'd like to re-write the notation on the email footer to reflect that there are photos there and what a person needs to do. It seems better to have a short link to a longer page of explanation out of the Rovernet email system.
There are Rover pictures here:

Thanks, Ed.
I'll develop advice for that medium of photos. The back-up list seems to work as an emergency email notification list if the server goes off-line but the photo section seems to be an issue.
I hope the "Photobucket" option wokrs.

Eric,
I'd like to put my $0.02 (CDN or USD, you pick) in here and recommend
that people avoid Photobucket and opt for PicasaWeb instead (
http://picasaweb.google.com )
PicasaWeb is easier to use for both the person posting the photos and
for the person viewing them, and it makes it much easier to share photos
with folks, like the people on this list.
You can view my photos, including some of my cars (past and present),
and others I stumbled across that were for sale that I didn't buy, here:
https://picasaweb.google.com/rymes60

Good idea.
I'll look and it and likely change the suggestion based upon your recommendation.

You actually have to sign up separately for the backup list even if you have a Yahoo account - if you do through the homepage that then you should be able to see everything

I set up the RoverAustralia group email using Yahoo to accept photos.
Members from all parts of the globe just attach photos same as if
sending an email to friends. No need for photo bucket or any other of
site that takes you away from the list and saves time to join set up
remember passwords ect. ect ect.

I prefer "Mailman" as the main email list for Rovernet. More options for me as a manager. I prefer the security for the group and the management for me.
I had to use Yahoo Groups as a back-up list in case the server crashed or went off line. We changed to a new company with greater reliability.
I will review the options on the Yahoo back-up list for photos.

Hi, all.
I went to the "Rover_net" Yahoo Groups back up list and found this info in the FAQ list:
1. Do I need a Yahoo! email address to use Yahoo! Groups?
** No, you can use any email address you'd like. Keep in mind that your email address will be visible to the owner/moderators of the groups you join and, if you post a message, to all other members of the group who receive message by email. Make sure you use an email address which you don't mind disclosing to them.
2. How do I add a photo?
**Just as with other kinds of files, you can easily upload photos from your own computer to your group?s page, where they?ll be available for other group members to see. If you want to upload images you?ve taken with a digital camera, you have to download them to your hard drive before you can upload them to your group page.
3. To upload one or more photos to your group?s page:
**** 1. Click Photos in the left navigation bar of any group page
etc., etc., etc.
_____________________________________________________
I read that if you are a member of the Rover_net BACK-UP list you should be able to see and post photos. We need someone who knows they are on the back-up list to try this. OR someone who would like to join the back-up list, give me his/her email list (not Yahoo address), I'll add him/her to the back-up list and he/she can test the theory.

As we are discussing photo alt, I prefer Flickr. It has many options
to post, including software on your PC or direct by logging on to the
Photstream page and uploading. You don't have to join anything or log
on to look at the pics if you set it up that way, or if you want to
you can restrict viewers to those you designate.

Flickr is, indeed another good alternative, definitely superior to
Photobucket. Kodak is probably the worst of them, because they
constantly try to I personally prefer Picasa because it is easier (IMHO)
to get the link to a photo to post in a web forum.
You really can't go wrong with either one, but there is a benefit to
using the Yahoo page, as the photos are all gathered together.
Come to think of it, I'm making this more confusing, not less!

Isn't there a photo resolution limit on Yahoo?
Google has recently changed the way they file photos, and are (have?)
stopped uploading to their Groups pages.
As Yahoo have an interest in Flickr, I wonder if they may eventually
go the same way?

Car is on Ebaymotors under other makes. Rover is not mentioned in the
header which makes it more difficult to search for.
Hope this works as I don't usually have much luck doing copy and paste.

Kent,
The link works. I like the Venetian blinds in the rear window. I have not seen those in ages. Good for TX and AZ. Good luck in getting this one. Looks pretty good.

It's already too high for me to afford and there are five days to run.
The sunroof would be rare on a RHD car, but it is certainly the only one
in North America and LHD to boot. Very nice car needing respray and
leather repair and new rubber.

Kent,
If you reconsider, save your highest bid until about five seconds before the bidding closes and hit send. This is what I do on all my E-bay bids. Most times I just lurk until the last few seconds. No sense in letting the other foolish bidders know you are even there.

The listing for the P5 with sunroof, on ebay (in AZ), has been removed
by the seller. I never fully understand the rationale about
starting/stopping auctions like this. (Isn't the object to sell the car,
and isn't a healthy number of bids an indication that an interested

Subject: [Rovernet ] P5 Mk III w. metal sunroof on ebay--listing removed

Interesting to note that this car was listed on Craigslist in Tucson on 4/19 for $1000! I completely missed that listing so it must not have been on Craigslist for very long! I only found it by doing a Google search for 1967 Rover after it was already on EBay.

Funny you mention that, as I think I might have seen it on CL, but it had maybe one crappy photo and a description that didn't lend confidence, IIRC.

Always a good find and at a decent price. I saw these on ebay today. If
anyone needs them. (Not selling these, but I do remember it taking a while
to find some last time I was looking)
