Hi
I was on this forum a couple of years ago with my Zircon Blue 2000 that I rescued from a farmers field. Much as I loved that car the siren call of MGBs made me sell it earlier this year.
I regretted this decision almost immediately but still hankered after a V8. I’ve now managed to track down a local 3500 Auto with desirable power steering. It needs welding in a few places, tuning, carpets and a respray.
The plan is to get it ready for the spring with perhaps a colour change. The original was Paprika but has been hand painted red. I quite fancy Lunar grey with grey carpets and black seats. Any views?
I will no doubt be asking lots of stupid questions soon as I have never dealt with a Rover V8 engine before.
I’ll try to post a few more photos as work continues.
Andy
