1937 Rover 16 Sports Saloon

[Ballarat Bertie]

Can anyone put me in contact with an owner of a 1937 Rover 16 Sports Saloon? I'm hoping to get in touch with someone who can help me with photo's and info to aid the restoration of my car. My car is relatively complete but I would like to know how origional an earlier restoration was. I need detail on engine and body paint colours, interior upholstry materials, design and colour, carpet design and colour and general appearance of body trims. I also need info on the jack and where I can source one, the cover over the Hi tension leads and the automatic chassis lubrication pump and meter valve. Regards Steve.

Thank you for the Phone numbers. I phoned Mike Couldry and had a chat. It seems that he can help with most of the parts that I need (at this stage) except for interor upholstry advice. He is going to look around for a few photo's of a 1937 model for me. I will be sending him some photo's of my car along with a parts required list and a sample of the wheel spokes that I require. Regards Steve.
