Parts catalog for SC 2000 MY1964

Good day to all,
I am willing to purchase a parts manual that applies to my early LHD 1964 model, either paper or pdf.
All I can find on Internet is a 1977 publication "ROVER 2000 Illustrated Car Parts List Sep 1974 #RTC9021"
Can someone help me by confirming which edition is suitable please?
I was hesitant as to where to locate this request, may be under "Tools", not sure. If it needs to be displaced to a more adequate section of the forum, I will certainly not feel offended!
Merry Christmas !
 
The wanted section is fine for this thread - There's a 67 version on ebay - 315035086942
 
I saw the exploded diagrams and thought it was a parts manual, have a look here: -


Might give you an idea what to look for.
 
The parts manuals for P6 are not year specific but are sequential so anything later than your car will have your parts listed in it. The organisation can take a little getting used to but at the bottom of each page are notes which refer to the changed parts and how to identify what fits your car. The best option is to get the most recent version as it will have all the updates, which is good if your car has had later versions of something fitted over the years - you will still be able to locate it. As well as the graffic pages there is a part no. reference in the back. Note that changes were made on the cars all the way up to 1976. Manuals are published by Brooklands Books these days.
 
Please tell us a bit more about the car, just becasue we like to hear about any of the early cars that show up.

As for a parts catalog, my earliest that covers the single carb cars is part number 606128 from April 1969. It does cover the earliest cars, but in many cases the part numbers are for the newer superseding part so if the goal is to get parts as originally fitted in 1964 it won't help.

I have a TC catalogue, part number 4816 from Sept 1966 that is closer to the mark but it omits anything specifically single carb (mostly engine parts). And the same issues with superseding part numbers goes. For example, the shark’s tooth valence isn’t listed. Just the later valence.

Ask anytime for a page scan for something specific.

Yours
Vern
 
Thank you very much for your replies.
@mikecoombs : Thanls for your reply, cristal clear, in fact I quite like the idea of sourcing a manual closest a possible to the year of the car too and I did spot a couple of these on internet in the meantime. Searching catalog instead of manual did help!
@Vern Klukas : I shared some details about this car when I bought it right before Covid in July '19 : French touch
1964 French "Sharks Tooth" 2000

Apparently it is the oldest known LHD P6 and I am so keen to put it back on the road. I just had too many distractions over the last couple of years to focus on this car sadly...
 
There are several earlier than the 4816 for the TC; I believe the 1963 and 65 versions. I have them upstairs somewhere.

Rover made a lot of changes in the first few years.
