Hi Steve
             How about a surplus Rover parts thread in US which includes
Canada!!! I have a barn full of bits and pieces almost all Rover!  Prices
are good too, most of the parts I would gladly donate free.
There are a lot of Rovers in and around Atlantic Canada, here on PEI I know
of three TC's one SC and my P5 plus a few Land Rovers. In Newfoundland its
possible to spot a Land Rover in many a back yard, and even cars are often
seen. New Brunswick likewise has quite a few Rovers,  one is a 1938 P2 12HP,
but its too pricey $10,000 and its been off the road for at least twenty
years! Nova Scotia has a L/Rover club and there are a few cars that I'm
aware of.
Nevertheless, I sometimes wonder if we are a dying breed?? how many new and
young Rover enthusiast are joining our ranks these days??????
                      Regards  Ben.
