    Rover 3500S Rebuild

    For many years, except for the last ten to twelve or so, I have owned a Rover 3500S. Unlike Automatics, the Series 2 P6B's with manual transmission were fully imported from England. The Automatics with either BW35 or BW 65 (later models) were sent to New Zealand in CKD form, and fully assembled...

    Choosing Rover P5 tyres

    For some little while now, I have been somewhat agonizing about having to purchase a set of tyres for one of my Coupes - specifically, in this instance, the Admirality Blue/Slate Grey Mark 2A Coupe that I bought in 1971. I had already, some three to four years ago, bought Bridgestone Conselas -...

    Bumper and Trim Gel

    Ever since purchasing my Holden Captiva, I have been looking, and purchasing, various products in an effort restore the Matt black finish on bumper and General plastic panels on all four doors. None have really been 100% successful. Invariably, rain and washing/cleaning would simply wash off and...

    300SEL - 6.3 Ignition Key

    I've had a 1971 model in my care for a number of years waiting for the owner to forward instructions concerning bodywork to be carried out and for further attention. Naturally, not having been mobile for years, the car is down on its haunches with the air suspension not being mobile. Naturally...

    6.9 Queensland

    For a change, there is no need for me to criticise a 6.9 listed for sale - as if I should really, but then again it's best to be perspective as to merits or otherwise of an offering. With this car, I can't tell which exterior colour it is, but it looks very agreeable to me. The overall...

    Hitler's parade car

    Australian Motoring - early history

    Full of nostalgia - starting with my arrival in this country back in 1958, attaining with huge pride Australian citizenship - I could go on. Sorry to say, but that part of Australia has vanished. Regards Styria https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TO73CH72pYk

    BMW History

    Yes, you're reading right. BMW in the hallowed pages of TK ? Too right. I must admit that, nowadays, BMW purchases would frighten me - I am talking of older models. However, that belief didn't stop me from pushing the large BMW 507 of 1956 vintage on ice covered snow - half to one inch at a...
