Hey guys! So I'm just starting my rebuild finally! just wanting a bit of information. My 76' p6 had air con fitted when I got it. I'm just wondering if it is an original unit? I can't seem to find it in the workshop manual, and I've yet to see a p6 with a similar unit fitted. The compressor...

ive had mine for about 6 - 7 years now!! just had no time to restore them.. although time has come!! i need interior!! im from ringwood luke! how about yourself?

i know this is an older thread, but there are quite a few around in my area of melbourne.. i have two! that said, neither are on the road atm as im doing a full resto!! soon enough :)

thanks for the reply! i appreciate your information. its good to know a bit of history on them! now to just restore them both to showroom condition :)

hey guys! i remember years ago, somebody on this forum told me that possibly one of my p6 rovers was a factory parts bin car produced at the end of production in 76. Is there any way to identify this? i've been told that supplementary tanks were only fitted to LHD NADA 3500S from 1969 through to...

Okay!! So I've tried modifying doors and such for a good electric window modification to nothing great. What is a good aftermarket kit? Preferably I'd prefer to be able to reupholster the doors and not have the old cap over the top.. But if so.. then that is okay. What kits have people used...

Wow! Thanks for all the detailed replies! I really do appreciate it! When it's daylight I will give the fuses a look see.. I did test them although it wouldnt hurt wiggling them around and mixing and matching fuses to see if this is the issue! I forgot to mention with the tail light issue, the...

hey all! so recently i've just got my 73 rover to start! and boy is it sweet. Few problems I've found... when i put my lights on I get the headlights although no parking lights, nothing in the rear end. when i put my hazard lights on.. they work although barely! not very bright at all.. what...

I've fitted modified mine a little bit. Aluminium heat shielding and a smaller fan.. Temperature is good, and no issue at all with over reading. Simple modification as the fan is attached to the back of the cluster (speedo, tacho etc...) I get a reading of about 15degrees. I should of taken...

This is odd. I had a dash left out of one of my p6's. majority of the gauges were faulty, clock, speedo, tacho and fuel... Being hot in australia this is probably why. Now they work perfect its winter! May put some heat shielding in between the dash and the gauges!

Hi Paul, thanks again for your detailed responses. It makes it easy to decide on what to do and how to go about it. I really do appreciate it. Currently mounting it anywhere for the "comfort" factor will not be an issue. As there is no dash in it. The second fuse box sits next to the current...

Thanks guys. Okay so I may just go through and remove the fuse box and replace it with the wedge fuse box I have. Should I mount it in the engine bay? I know it's a big job.. although is it the best option? I don't mind this as I want it right the first time. And causing a fire isn't...

Hello Paul, thankyou so much for the reply. The current fuse box in it is in perfect condition. So keeping it in there is preferable. My fuse box doesn't seem to have any spare fuse places left.. so adding another box is probably the easiest / best solution. I have both a spare p6 original...

Hey all! Okay so I'm adding things such as air conditioning, gas conversion, electric windows and such things to my p6. All up I have about 8 - 10 inline fuses and it's getting pretty messy trying to locate them all under the dash and if I had to replace one further down the line... god help me...

Reading a few other threads, and the workshop manual, i'm just keen to know which compression my engines have! How do I work this out? Thanks, Andy
