interesting history with Rover dealerships.  -- Steve Manwell

 I regularly get your newsletter but have never attended an event your 
club holds. I am moving out of state end of June 2006 and have a 1970 
3500S NA Version. I bought it in 1974  It is Davos white, repainted in 
1978 or so at the dealership I was a tech. at. I was going to list on 
Ebay but figured I would let your club know first. The floor footwell 
has an area approx. 20 inches square I cut out to replace the rusted 
area, but have not had a panel welded in yet. My wife worked in the 
parts dept. at that dealership so she regularly ordered "sell down" 
parts from J.R.T. in Leonia. I also have a new hood on it still in 
primer, and the cylinder heads are off the engine, since I was in 
process of converting to fuel injection but stopped due to conviction of 
damaging originalty.
 I installed a factory new steering box and rear differential assembly  
since they were very inexpensive, and have the original units also as 
well as many engine parts. I would include any and all parts in the 
deal, as long as she goes to a caring home. Speedo may not work but I 
drove it only till 1908 as a 2nd car when I bought the SD1 Midas Gold Rover.
Please contact if you know anyone interested before I list on Ebay.
 Car is in Somerset County, New Jersey.
 
Thanks,
