BACK From The DEAD (Maybe) - Judith The Rover 45 LIVES! 

So next week will be the MOT work done. I'm kind of fustrated that some small holes were picked up dispite the additional welding I had done, but I dont have a four post lift to look underneith. I'm confident that the tiny weld patches will be a qucik easy reapir. Should be one of the cleanst 45's on the road when I've finished 😀 Thank you Rik for posting

Since filming Judith FAILED the mot on lots of welding…. Peter is persistent in his plan to save the car and assures me it will be done…. I definitely dodged a bullet getting rid of the car! I’ll keep you posted.

Thanks for the update Ricky, good to hear her running again and seemingly ready to go back on the road again, she was worth saving I think as she was an early mk2 45 which there are less of nowdays, more of the later “Project drive” cars, still a bit puzzled on that ticking sound from the engine though, but at least she’s running ok now. Let’s hope she passes the MOT and finds a new owner.

It's a shame about the mot fail, I have a rover 45, from new, it's a mk1, it's done 38,000, from new, bought it in 2000, no rust it's never failed an mot, think I will hang on to it, as these are getting scarce now

So there he was polishing away and then got a kick in the balls when it failed... hard to spot some rust when you're lying on the driveway😢 Have seen the prospective new owners comment. Buying old cars can be tricky, either deluded buyers or sellers or both mean you've got to have you're eyes open. There's excitement in getting a new car and i don't know anyone who hasn't bought a car that's been unwise to buy. Im fiat mad and have bought some that others wouldn't, but i have the knowledge of these cars and tinkering on them is a hobby. Never had a rover but you've also got to be handy with a welder or you'll go broke quickly 😊 Thank Peter for his video, was interesting to see the progress. Bloody weather is awful and I'm not tinkering in it unless absolutely necessary 😊

Well done Peter, good job. Good luck Judith. Happy new Year all.

Thanks for the update on Judith Rick, hopefully Peter can still save Judith and the car finds a new home that will comtinue to her like yourself and Peter did.

Sounds like something is blowing, exhaust manifold?

thanks for update rick

If that was mine then I think I would be spraying the underneath with old engine oil after the welding was completed. Cheers K.

Yeah it's a shame that it fell through for me but i don't like dishonesty so i had to walk. This is the problem when you part own a car with someone and you don't talk to them about deals agreed. I spent well over £200 on add on bits for judith once a deal was agreed. only to be then told the other party wanted double what was initially agreed at which point i had to walk. Was looking forward to owning this car and was literally 5 days away from owning it. I think it's only fair people know 'the politics'. Just as another heads up as well, anyone whom does buy this car needs to be aware that by the owners own admission, the car will need more welding in 12 months or so.

Keep us all posted on the progress. If it’s shown on here, then maybe someone from your subscribers will want her.
