Rover P6 Club

 Its been some time since I have been on the web site , but things have been moveing foreward even though slow. for the last 6 months my son hs been restoring   the car and I must say that after all the body panels were removed the car base was in good shape. all the interia was sent away and recovered in leather including the door bins parcel shelf ect all in jaguar biscuit brown with  a dark brown pipeing. the car has just had the door shurs bonet and boot resprayed in Mexico brown, the wings and other smaller items being sprayed this weekend and the following week the doors to finish with. the end product is all in the preporation and I must say what a fantastic job my son has done. Its been a vey long time but all worth while.

Hi  anybody, my rover is giving me trouble  it does not want to go more than 50-55 mph and even slower up hills have tried advancing and retarding but that does not help , could it be carb. trouble.  any sugesstions. 

Went to pick up our car today but further problems hilighted, firstly and not too much of a problem a water leak has developed in the return side of the radiator, but more of a problem is that the garage is still not happy with the way the car runs.

I purchased DOW Last June knowing that the last owner had the car for about 28 years and he had just spent £1600 on the engine and auto box to try and resolve bad oil leaks. When I got the car home it was self evident that that money had ben waisted as it was leaking engine oil very bad.

If anyone can help with these parts I would be very appreciative, we are coming to a standstill in the rebuild of my TC2000 as these parts are missing from the engine, and we have been unsuccessful in finding a complete donor engine in Malaysia. I am urgently looking for these used parts:

camshaft sprocket, timing chain tensioner spring, set valves, valvecaps, collets etc., set springs, camshaft mounting bracket assembly & studs.

Thanks and regards

Andy

I went to the pub the other day.

In itself that was ok - what made it an occasion was that I went in my Rover.

The Chester Branch Meeting is held at  The Black Dog pub, A41 Whitchurch Road, Waverton, Chester on the second Wednesday of each month starting about 8PM-ish

 Blogg by Bill about a prfevious meeting.

This week saw the August meeting of the Chester Branch of the Rover P6 Club.It was hosted by Stephen Benyon and included a number of enthusiasts with a connection with Rovers or interest in old cars in general.

 I have thought lately that classic cars have become much more fashionable.

Hi all this is my first day as a P6 club member and i am rebuilding a 1972 3500 at the moment so will probably be asking a lot of questions in the future so please be patient with me as this is my first P6
