    Rover Resurrection in NH?

    On a trip to North Conway, NH this past week, I noticed a new shop right on Rt16 in Chocorua called "Rover Resurrection". Anyone know anything about it? Just curious. I stopped, but the shop was closed. It looks like they collected that '68 IIA in Weare that was for sale on C-list for about a year. Below is a photo of some of the Rovers in the shop yard.

    It is news to me. Maybe we can check it out during the non-event the first weekend in Oct. Were there any hours posted?

      No, there were no hours posted. There was a sign with a phone #, which unfortunately I failed to write down. It is located in an old gas station about 1/4 mile north of where rt 113 intersects rt 16 in Chocorua (not Albany). It did look like a brand new business. On my way to North Conway last Sunday, the 88 from Weare was loaded on a trailer by itself. On my way home Friday, it was unloaded and the other 88 w/ tropical top was next to it.

          It is a group of Series Rover folks from the Guns and Rovers forum who get together at least annually.

                              I just got through the accounting for the last 6 months and looking back....overhead has more than doubled in the last 8 yrs. Insurance has gone through the roof. I can't imagine trying to open a legitimate shop right now.....and I have Bacon (Jeff).
