Rover 16 6 light sallon My boss has this in his garage, it was a project he started about 15 years ago. The body and pannels were shot blasted and primed the chassis was blasted and painted, the engine was rebuilt etc etc. Usual story: now it has stood in his garage for some years and is in the way but he will never even get round to selling it unless someone else does it for him. As far as I know it is largely complete but not all in one piece, I think the body is attached to a rolling chassis and the engine is where it should be. He sais he would let it go for 1500 squids, If anyone is interested I could get some more info and pics. Here it is:   What google image search thinks it looks like:   |

Our Setra camper plans are going to have to wait a while (until we win the pools ) but the Rover restauration is well within budget ;D Our plans are to restore it, that is all, nothing more nothing less  |

My old boss at the recovery garage has a couple of these. I also just helped him drag a completely rotten one out of somebody's garden. We were gonna save any useable bits and weigh it in, until on cleaning the chassis the chassis number was 000000000001 LOL, getting restored now.
