Re: rear springs

Hi Rich, Not aware of anyone who offers this service in our local area, however I'll make a few enquires.
There may be a company at the Classic Resto Show @ Stoneleigh on Sunday (RSR have a Stand in Hall 2).
Normally there are companies at the NEC Classic Car Show who can retemper/reset road springs.

Re: Will this fit...

Hi Rich, It should fit, although the rubber tray looks a bit ropey, also not all the tools are there.

I've got an adjustable spanner which you can hav...

Re: Headlining

Please be aware that the headlining in the post war cars is attached differently to that of the pre war cars.
The post war cars headlining is attached by wire hoops on the piece behind the sunroof .
Also the the roof and sunroof are different from a saloon and a sports saloon.

Re: Helen Street

Albeit the Coventry Motor Museum may only have 2 Rovers on display, they have many more in the Reserve Collection,
which they tend to rotate in the Museum. The RSR Annual General Meeting is being held there this year, so we will be
able to see the changes that they have made.
