Re: Sump removal

See my post above (15th April) in short yes but the conclusion is no! "The filter cover and filter." There is no separate filter cover. The brass cover is threaded into the boss in the sump.

Re: 1947 cars optional extras, is Les Spencer on here?

Les is not on the forum, but I spoke to him about the setup on his car. He tells me that he bought the frame from Freddy Boulton. I have a suitable nave plate( you advertised for one) if you are interested?

Regards,

Mike Maher, Chairman

Re: Rover special 10

Helllo and welcome to the Forum. You could try putting an advert on the RSR website. Use the link above to the Home page. I don't know of a 10/25 or 10 special block or engine for sale, sorry.
Best regards

Re: front springs

Are you sure that the springs are made to the correct specs and on the correct way round? The axle mounting locating bolt holding the leaves together is NOT at the centre of front springs. It is off centre on the spring, with the shorter length to the front. The main leaf roll end on a genuine Rover...
