Practical Classics, Restoration Show 23

Can't post a link but finally found a YouTube video with my BRM

Best bits and missed bits! Highlights of the PC Classic Car & Restoration Show

3:32

 

Good find, the video is by HubNut, who has cropped up before!

 

This popped up for me when I viewed the above...

Twice in the first 2mins!

 

Mine at 11:35, @Antony Parsons at 17:25 for several minutes!

 

1.8 version of a Rover 25 how dare you Sir!!!

 

Oh the amount of misinformation I've seen and heard this weekend and on some of these videos!

Most people just won't care to that level of detail though

 

To be fair, I think "we" have become protective anoraks! of our marque.

 

I agree!

To be fair, the only person I heard bring up the head gasket this time, was @BRMFUN.

 

@GT- dead man walking!

 

You need an army!!!

 

Last few from me….
This made @Antony Parsons come out in a fever!! Yes no sunroof 200s also rust in the gutter, as seen here on a 211, which is awaiting a new roof
@GT- knows how to pack a bag and a car, and did such a good job we let him get on with it !!
Would you let these men work on your car or indeed buy a car off them??!!! Finally one for @Roverlike, I do like the 600 in this colour!

 

We feature at 09:40.

 

That hole in the roof belonged to an absolute poverty spec 1.1 (was it an 8 valve - GT will know). Owned by a young lady who was intending to repair and ultimately export....
But, for our interests sake, it had PAS and it had electric adjust headlamps - so I think we can reasonably say no R3 had anything but electric adjustable headlamps..

 

It was 8v…

 

Yep, confirmed it was an 8v. I've not seen her car in any of thr videos yet, although I've not actively searched.

I meant to go get some pictures, but failed in my quest!

 

Fingers crossed!!

 

Given other recent success, I hope so!

 

You never can tell with these things though, you could (and we have) just been bumped out to give another club a go!
