RSR Forum posts- Wilks' cars P1 and P2, thats cars up to 1947 • Re: Interior ImprovementsYes indeed, I only found out after acquiring it. Adrian Mitchell was kind enough to give me Terry's phone number, but I have yet to ring him to get the full story as I would very much like to understand the cars full history; especially as it appears to have only done ~6,500 miles but […]AFPU
- Wilks' cars P1 and P2, thats cars up to 1947 • Re: Interior ImprovementsHi 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_TZEhope this helpsMikeGOY189
- New members • Re: New member TwickenhamWelcome to the RSR forum and Rover ownership. It sounds like you have an interesting project and we would love to read all about the resurrection as it progresses.

- New members • New member TwickenhamHi all, I am a new member from Twickenham. Just purchased a 1936 Rover 10 CKT 874 from a neighbour.

- Wilks' cars P1 and P2, thats cars up to 1947 • Re: Jaeger Clock adjustmentIt's hard to be precise without seeing but the two things to reconcile with quartz movements are :1) fitting the movement to make the battery and adjuster accessible and 2) retaining the original clock case to maintain the fixings points for the original clamp. 2) seems to usually win out over 1) so the adjusting […]SHyslop
- Wilks' cars P1 and P2, thats cars up to 1947 • Interior ImprovementsI have recently acquired a 1937 Rover 12 Sports Saloon (FPD 357), which I am advised was previously owned by Terry Priestley in the 1970’s and 80’s, and this is my first Rover for I am very much in a voyage of discovery.The car appears to be in good running order with excellent bodywork and […]AFPU
- Wilks' cars P1 and P2, thats cars up to 1947 • Re: Jaeger Clock adjustmentGreat advice. Having had a quick look the borads covered with material around the instrument panel are present but have obviously been pulled back for access, so I may be able to gain access that way. As for the hands size and nut I'll need to have a closer look once the weather improves and […]AFPU
- Wilks' cars P1 and P2, thats cars up to 1947 • Re: Jaeger Clock adjustmentAll will be revealed once you get into it! (Personal biased views following !!) Quartz movements are a quick fix for a non working clock but the standard quartz movement has a sort of nasty 'crunch-crunch' sound compared with the nice 'click click - click click' of the original.There are quieter newer quartz movements, to […]SHyslop
