i had the one on ebay, people kept asking me about A/C, power brakes, gas milage and all that, told most to go out and get a jeep, decided to keep her.

Found these two at a Brit repair shop in Frederick MD...there were a slew of other interesting British vehicles there as well, but figured these two deserved to make the 'waiting to be rescued' thread for the Rovers:

Just realized that Apis found the same two Rovers that I did back in post #209...wow!

A guy in Cranbrook has a great condition 66 series P/U fo sale asking $4,000.00 in the local paper. the frame is in great condition as he said he strips it down and repaints it every 2 years and has owned the truck for the last 20 years. It has parabolics and a new factory engine with the better cam. Anyway I can email his contact info to anyone who is interested. It is a great truck I would buy it but I just do not fit in the series trucks.

That would be a nice project.

To bad it wasn't closer...

Found in Plano Texas...

Driving by "K Ave" in Plano, Texas, where I never see any old Rovers except mine, I spotted this 60's girl sitting pretty in a storage yard. Doesn't look bad...
