A few months ago i bought another classic British car sight unseen. A 1972 Rover 3500 P6 barn find that has been sitting for 6-10 years. It's a lovely old V8 classic but it has been off the road for 12 years. It's almost summer and I want to enjoy the car this season. Let's do the bare minimum to get my Rover v8 back on the road after 12 year. In this video I flush the coolant system and replace all the hoses.

It’s heart warming to see a car being given the care it deserves, to keep it continuing to run sweet, nice Adam 👍🙂

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Thanks Bob! I hope to be able to enjoy it on the open road soon

@grayfool Год назад

I'm very envious of you with this car. You seem to have found a really nice example. Lovely.

@jamesproudlove1527 Год назад

It does my heart good Adam, to see a fellow classic car enthusiast work on this Rover V8. The ease, at which these cars & other Marques, to work on.

@johnmaguire9305 Год назад

Great video. You make it look so easy! (Pity about Sheldon’s p6 on Classic Britain.)

@mikehill9888 Год назад

Thank you for the video 😊

@gregorcameron8638 Год назад

Thanks - loved watching the video. Lovely car

@cameronwood1994 Год назад

Those engines actually take 10W/30 oil according to that label, not 20W/50. Castrol now to a Classic GTX 10W/40 which may be more suitable.

@johndavey72 Год назад

This lovely car (that you stole !) just keeps on giving Adam . I still think you need to keep a very close eye on this car . If it's a toss up (choice ) between this and the 1300 your good lady will choose this every time ! Thanks Adam

@lionelguilbert6493 Год назад

This P6 has the best looking grille of all P6 models. I really like it. I'm probably biased because my dad's was the same!

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

I agree! It’s my favorite grill for them too

@ScaphanNetwork Год назад

What did you use to clean the hose connectors? Wire wool? Dremel with brush attachment?

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

If it’s pretty good just som very fine wire wool. If it’s bad, first some 80 sand paper.

@Thanos.m Год назад

Great progress on the P6 can't wait to see it back on the road! And I'd agree the Rover v8 is a joy to work on although my experience has been with it in range rovers

@stephanusjohanneshough2646 Год назад

Good day Adam and the progress is good. Engine sounds good and can not wait to see you and possibly your wife driving and enjoying it.❤

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Thanks I can’t wait either!

@donnysweekendvanlifetravel7854 Год назад

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Thanks Donny! I complete agree that you never see them this good. That’s why I think it will stay with me for a long time

@alexandrecouture2462 Год назад

I'm starting to miss videos on the RHD to LHD XJ-S conversion, as well as Adam's red XJ-S.

@johnmoruzzi7236 Год назад

And the V8 S-type !

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

There will be an update video on all these. A few projects have been going on without filming especially if it’s customer cars.

@mikedx2706 Год назад

Nice video. It that were ny Rover, I would also change the fuel filter since it is still running on the old gasoline from when it was parked in a barn.

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

I have one on order. They’re currently out of stock

@gbentley8176 Год назад

You have definitely found yourself a lovely Rover. TLC and back on the road is a must. She will a fantastic compliment to your Jaguars. I have a Series 3 Townley V8 conversion Land Rover from 1972. Purrs like a kitten and quite a rare vehicle today. Best wishes from the UK.

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Your Land Rover sounds lovely. These old V8 engines have a great charm to them

@shauntvr4312 Год назад

Your car is great nice video

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Thank you!

@tonypacke6954 Год назад

I would have a look at the two grommets that support the throttle shaft, these always end up "dissolving" and makes linkage sloppy. Originals aren't available but after market ones are OK. May have to order from UK though.

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Thanks for the tip! They seem pretty tight so far

@brianmac8260 Год назад

The steering box is probably leaking Adam. There is a product which solves the problem. Semi Fluid Grease Oil. I wont put the makers name, one of my comments was deleted on another video. It's about 10euros.

@jaguarrroman Год назад

Wow, a V8 Rover looks like a Jaguar!

@michelswerissen6544 Год назад

Love the Rover you'll love driving it.

@davidsolloway9349 Год назад

Like 39. I think the Rover will turn out well.

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Thanks David I think so too

@parrotraiser6541 Год назад

The advance/retard diaphragm housing looked a bit sorry for itself.

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

It works though! Holds vacuum and moves

@nigelbond4056 Год назад

Superb 👏👏

@edwinblank58 Год назад

Do you still have the original air filter housing?

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Yes. It will gone on in the next video after I tune the carbs

@perjensen4454 Год назад

Hey ☺️ why are the most off your cars on Swedish numbers plates? Do your import going from here? Good video’s Have an nice day Per

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Well I live in Sweden

@perjensen4454 Год назад

Alla förstår väl svenska 😂😂 Jag kommer från Danmark Per

@johnpipe362 Год назад

I would let your wife drive the Rover.

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

She gets to drive any car she wants

@ronaldjonker5317 Год назад

The Rover P6 has a aluminum engine… I myself owed a P6, and I always used coolend without water in it!(corrosion) And be careful when you change the oilfilter! I put oil in it to keep oil pressure! And when you change it, do it as fast as you can. But I must say…you have a lovely car!😍

@LivingWithAClassic Год назад

Did you watch the video with the oil change?

@ronaldjonker5317 Год назад

No sorry…I only saw the first part… I just want to warn you. You doing a tremendous job!👌
