Rover Sports Register Forum

Hi Vikki, Are you in the UK? If so the club can help reclaim your registration via the V765 scheme, if that is what you want to do. If you have any old documents such as a tax disc and/or a RF50 or VE60 logbook (buff or green fold out log books respectively) that will help. If you let me know (PM if...

Hi Dirk, I'm sure that we can find some wings in the stores although some repairs will probably be needed. Just to add some perspective to the L ad R prefixdiscussion, My 1947 Sports Saloon (GOY189) is chassis number 7430545 in the records, but R7430545 on the chassis plate. According to the records...

I have used Marque restore for chroming and they are good. Things to bear in mind:- Have the shell stripped first then examine it and identify the dings and creases to be removed. (Marque Restore use a tinsmith who is excellent to do this). Then get the repaired shell chromed. The polisher MUST know...

Maybe I'm being dim ( pun intended!) , but I have always thought that diodes were polarity sensitive, so would an LED bulb work on a positive earth car like a P2?
