Yes I can confirm the car was looking rather good at Shepton on sunday. Sorry I didn't get chance to say hello but you were fielding questions from several people at the time!

Very nice, brings back happy memories of my S1 V8, sadly it was beyond the point, and is no more. Gutting, as I bought it from the original owners too.

Find another project to do,so keeping my eyes open locally and in the southwest!!
Gotta keep myself busy,and what it will be I dont know??
British I hope, and it will have to earn me a few pennies this time,as I cant keep them all!
Either a barn/garage find that needs a light recomission,MOT and a good lot of clean up TLC before selling on,or possibly a longer term overwinter project!
I've got a bit of tlc to give to my daily driver white S2P6V8,and its due its MOT next week,so tomorrow is its fix it day!
The only mechanical thing I know needs doing is the annual handbrake adjustment.
No welding needed this year,but it will need 2 tyres,so will use 2 of the good ones taken off the green one for the MOT for now,and get a full set of 4 before the winter sets in.
And the TR6 could do with a bit of loving!

Re: My 1968 Rover P6 S1 Three Thousand Five! A Refreshtorati
Dont know what happened to some of my pics?
They vanished??
Anyway,here are Ardie,Sid6,and The Boss,all polished up and posing on parade!
The next jobs on Ardie will be the addition of a full set of front ET and rear headrests,a full set of mudflaps,and hopefully a NOS set of door handles!
The headrests are currently with Clive Annable having a colour change,and I will be fitting the slots into the front seats next week.
The only other job to do will be the possible refitting of the overriders,but I still need to find a V good or NOS nsr!
Off to the Thornbury carnival on Sat 5th and The Bath Pagent on Sun 6th,and weather permitting Ardie will attend both!
If its wet and horrible,The Boss,who just passed his MOT with flying colours,can have a couple of days out to show off,as he hasnt been to an event for a while,and doesnt mind the rain!

Headrests arrived this morning while I was fitting the slots to the seats!
All went well and they look good!
Casper the boss approves!
