Re: Account suspended

Agreed, I hope the forum is safe or at least backed up so it can be guaranteed for the future.

Account suspended

Is it just me or has anyone else been unable to log in or view the site lately? Several times for days at a time over last 12 months or so I just see "Account suspended" page instead of Rover800.info forum.

Re: Fastback's cars.

That would be the most difficult one and probably very difficult to make another from scratch. If yours is just rusted around the bolt mount points you might be able to use large washers to secure it. Or do any repairs needed to the donor shield so it is a straight swap.

Re: Fastback's cars.

Good job. Thanks for posting all the pictures, especially the Vitesse reflected in the bumper shot, tailpipes look just right.

Which heat shield broke? I recently used 1.5mm aluminium sheet to make some exhaust heat shields, it is easy to work with.

Handsome car and lovely pictures, they look like they could for a Daimler sales brochure.

Excellent, it is good to see another 800 working hard on track, they really are quite good once you get going.
It s a shame you are selling it.

Nice job, it is a bit scarey that moment you have to drill the first hole, no going back and it has to be correct. Looks good

Re: Huge pile of spares, free to collector. Also recon rack for 827

Hi Dave,
I have not been back here for a while then when I do I see your clearing out your 800 spares.
Are they still available or am I too late?
