Re: New Member in Dorset

Hello William and welcome to the RSR and the Forum. What colour is the cover of the workshop manual and are the pages A4 sized? I ask because the later versions have a series of wiring diagrams towards the back of the manual.

Best regards

Re: 1937 Rover 12 - Wiper Arms

Both arms pointing to passenger side is correct. The original linkage is very simple and both arms move in the same way when the wiper gearboxes are engaged. Has a previous owner fitted another system? If you remove one of the inspection covers on the bulkhead, using a mirror, you should be able to ...

Re: New Member in Norfolk

Welcome to the group. The car was used in ACG&S but the producer wanted proof of its reliability and so gave instructions that it should drive from Leeds to London on the M1 and back again.

Re: Interior Improvements

Hi this was Terry's "Siegfried Farnon " car.

The Dashboard lettering is white paint. Try using a round tipped fine hypodermic needle to fill the letters.

The headlining is union cloth. You might try wool felting-see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7vBODmr_TZE
hope this helps

ACZS1 is the replaceable bypass cartridge filter that was standard on Rover 20hp cars and optional equipment on other P2s. Many Fram filters were fitted as an aftermarket option. ACZS1 was fitted to a number of other vehicles including series 1 Landrover. They are very hard to find these days and ex...

Re: leaf springs-part number

There is a supplement for the 12 tourer at the end of the 1939-47 parts list. Due to the lighter weight of the 12 tourer, part numbers 07967 and 07968 that are actually 10hp springs, were used.
