Great stuff Mike. Nice to see another one saved from a future of neglect. So it's a '50 like mine. It doesn't look too bad from the few photo's, but I'm looking forward to seeing more. Do you have details of the 1.6 engine? I'm guessing you haven't actually collected it yet.

It was worth buying it for the chassis and bulkhead . It does run too.The ring pull setup is still in it . The body is a write off , somebody has attacked it with angle iron and steel sheet. Home made doors !
I missed the 49 model in town here , just recently it vanished . It also had the grill mesh chop done . It's chassis was almost rusted right away and it was just about broken in half !
Filling up . Two dodgy characters turned up at the petrol station , selling computers and stereos out the back of a van... they asked but no takers.
The Rover drove onto the trailer under it's own power , the tank had old stale petrol in it. The car hasn't had a decent run for many years , it spluttered and eventually came to life. Hooray !
