    Rover P6 Solid Roof (1974 Series II V8 Auto)

    Some of these junkies are extremely annoying. You never know what they're going to do. Unfortunately asylums don't seem to be a thing anymore. Society doesn't work if you have a load of mentally deficient peeps ruining it for the rest of us. The ones who sit in the phone boxes at the end of the...

    No no, that's not a project, that was the result of catastrophic engine failure due to a main cap falling off. :(

    I'll be going out to the countryside to buy one Sunday after next. :)

    I made an album! :eek: Just a few snippets of what I have been doing inside my home while going mad during the unfortunate unpleasantness of 2020 and 2021. My new engine which is mostly assembled and will be going in this summer has 10.5:1 pistons, everything was ported all the way to the...

    That's how I ended up cutting my crankshaft in half between cylinders 2 & 3 :( - I had discovered that it would do 60MPH in 1st at 6000RPM. But the engine was already tired and had previously been worked on by an imbecile before I bought the car. No.2 main cap came loose and that was that.

    Oh it's terrible, and getting worse. You can physically see it in the streets. The mentally deficient and the religious fanatics are in top form! Got imported needle pumpers heating up their teaspoon casseroles in the phone boxes at the end of the road most nights. Most of the shops on the high...

    Oh that's quite alright. Nice to have a bit of a distraction from an otherwise miserable life. Got that worthless London mayor pushing his ULEZ scheme, C40 15 minute cities, demented politicians trying to push for the abolition of cars, sheeple being told to scream their allegiance to king WEF...

    That's handy. Stops the passenger from messing with the dial. :)

    Looks good to me! :thumb: Quick clean, some contact adhesive and vinyl. What's the inside like? Also did you receive my message regarding my offer?

    Well that is interesting. Haphazard, but not totally unexpected. I guess the first question that comes to mind is, how do I listen to the Bee Gees while running down Just Stop Oil protesters? :eek: Edit: I just realised that my post regarding me looking to purchase a solid roof for my P6, has...

    Very nice! :cool: Of course you would need that A/C in Australia, I hear it's rather warm over there, and there is always the possibility of football sized spiders entering your vehicle, or being punched in the face by a kangaroo while waiting at a stop sign if you happen to have the window...

    ️️ - Threw away you say. Interesting. I mean everything has value to someone. One of my good friends who is a good twice my age, got lobbed out of his garage by TLF, something about redevelopment. As if you can replace industry with coffee shops and purveyors of worthless tat and expect to...

    Well of course, no one actually expects you to sell vital organs to obtain parts for your car. Unless of course you happen to be a high ranking CCP official with access to ##REDACTED##. But it does annoy me that parts for Rovers can be rather difficult to come by. I got my P6 as my first car...

    Excellent, not too far away. Only thing is, I have absolutely no idea what any of these things are worth. I was sort of hoping that you would give me a price. eBay has turned up nothing on current or completed / sold listings. So what would you be looking for it? :hmm:
