You can register online or print out a paper registration form. All the details are located on his website. There are exciting new features shown on the program. Many Rover owners drive their Rovers from both Canada and many states in the USA. Some Rover enthusiasts fly in from points in the USA, Canada, and the UK. Linda and I are flying to the event fro Vancouver. It's well worth the effort! Consider attending the largest Rover car show in North America from June 2 to 5 near Boston, Mass.

Message-ID: <24B6FEA5-C668-4EDA-8457-6E32D0418A9F@telusplanet.net> As I look out the window tonight, the falling snow adds to the four and a half feet on the front lawn. My Rover is firmly ensconced in hibernation, with boxes of spares parts at his side, and new panels above him in the rafters of the garage.

In my case, leaking 4 speed gearbox selector shaft seals will be dealt as a priority. Rolling restoration jobs I have planned include removing and reapplying the undercoating on the bottom of the car, heater removal with repair of fan and foam seals, dent removal, replacing several panels, and, if time allows, cleaning and re- coloring the vinyl interior.

I like to see a bit of creativity but more in keeping with the cars origins. I dont mind the odd hot rod or two admiring the engineering in getting an old car back on the road and stuffing it full of V8 muscle. I do like the cars in a magazine I get from UK called Retro Cars, some of them are unbelievable, none of them are OTT and some are just the same nice cars with better running gear. Unfortunately there is nothing nice about this car, the guy does have some skill to change it to a pick up or Ute. What for though is beyond me. Why change a perfectly good sedan into??. well it?s just sort of crap?. Wonder if we can set up some sort of society for the prevention of cruelty to cars?.??

I still have your reply.Things have gotten faster since then. Good to see you are still "roving". Do you have much for p4 parts? I've a 1959 rover that I stuck in a barn a long time ago and now am beginning some of the restoration. Since I'm in New Brunswick and I believe you are on the Island,you would have to be the closest Rover person. There can't be a lot of Rover parts kicking around this part of Canada would there? I am only needing the things that?are missing, outside trim mostly it seems so far. sincerely Pete Prosser --- On Wed, 3/23/11, Frederick Ben Rodgers <irishrover1 at live.com> wrote: From: Frederick Ben Rodgers <irishrover1 at live.com> Subject: Re: [Rovernet ] Parts needed To: "rovernet at rovernet.ca" <rovernet at rovernet.ca> Received: Wednesday, March 23, 2011, 10:40 AM Consider attending the largest Rover car show in North America from June 2 to 5 near Boston, Mass.

This means that a subscriber can prepare a new Plain Text message and send it off. There may still be space for a reply or two. However, an extreme multiple replied message may get to be oversized and will not be delivered (protection to those with limited bandwidth). This means you won't see your message. Likewise, a message that a subscriber forwards that originally had pictures or another kind of attachment. In this case not only is the size too large but did you know that JPEG messages can contain malware secreted in code within the graphic? In conclusion, if your Rovernet message does not get through, it may fall outside the server's parameters. Eric "Always look on the bright side of life."...

It is extremely rare in this body style only 3 are known to exist. I have one see www.roveramerica.com and there are 2 in the UK. and mine is the only running one. If the car is for sale I would buy it and have it shipped to the USA. Thanks for finding the car hopefully someone will preserve it. By the way have you considered a trip to the USA for vacation this summer? June 2nd through the 5th would be an excellent time to come to the USA and attend the RoveAmerica 11. All your Rover friends are coming...

Den Gallacher. ________________________________ Tools Explained DRILL PRESS: A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your beer across the room, denting the freshly-painted project which you had carefully set in the corner where nothing could get to it. WIRE WHEEL: Cleans paint off bolts and then throws them somewhere under the workbench with the speed of light. Also removes fingerprints and hard-earned calluses from fingers in about the time it takes you to say, 'Oh sh--!' SKILL SAW: A portable cutting tool used to make studs too short. PLIERS: Used to round off bolt heads. Sometimes used in the creation of blood-blisters. BELT SANDER: An electric sanding tool commonly used to convert minor touch-up jobs into major refinishing jobs. HACKSAW: One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board principle... It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course, the more dismal your future becomes. VISE-GRIPS: Generally used after pliers to completely round off bolt heads. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to transfer intense welding heat to the palm of your hand. OXYACETYLENE TORCH: Used almost entirely for lighting various flammable objects in your shop on fire. Also handy for igniting the grease inside the wheel hub out of which you want to remove a bearing race. TABLE SAW: A large stationary power tool commonly used to launch wood projectiles for testing wall integrity. HYDRAULIC FLOOR JACK: Used for lowering an automobile to the ground after you have installed your new brake shoes, trapping the jack handle firmly under the bumper. BAND SAW: A large stationary power saw primarily used by most shops to cut good aluminum sheet into smaller pieces that more easily fit into the trash can after you cut on the inside of the line instead of the outside edge. TWO-TON ENGINE HOIST: A tool for testing the maximum tensile strength of everything you forgot to disconnect. PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER: Normally used to stab the vacuum seals under lids or for opening old-style paper-and-tin oil cans and splashing oil on your shirt; but can also be used, as the name implies, to strip out Phillips screw heads. STRAIGHT SCREWDRIVER: A tool for opening paint cans. Sometimes used to convert common slotted screws into non-removable screws and butchering your palms. PRY BAR: A tool used to crumple the metal surrounding that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 50 cent part. HOSE CUTTER: A tool used to make hoses too short. HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit. UTILITY KNIFE: Used to open and slice through the contents of cardboard cartons delivered to your front door; works particularly well on contents such as seats, vinyl records, liquids in plastic bottles, collector magazines, refund checks, and rubber or plastic parts. Especially useful for slicing work clothes, but only while in use. SON-OF-A-BITCH TOOL: (A personal favorite!!) Any handy tool that you grab and throw across the garage while yelling 'Son of a BITCH!' at the top of your lungs. It is also, most often, the next tool that you will need. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This was his April 1996 column in Road & Track magazine; over the years, folks who've sent it on its way around the Internet haven't been able to resist "improving" it, but as far as I'm concerned, it was perfect as written.

This was his April 1996 column in Road & Track magazine; over the years, folks who've sent it on its way around the Internet haven't been able to resist "improving" it, but as far as I'm concerned, it was perfect as written.

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?
