Rover SD1 3500cc Twin Plenum Vitesse - Bonnet and Roof Resto 09Page Five - Consistent Lighting - Digital Red Heaven - No Probs?
Day Six and with everything painted, they had switched off the Oven shortly before I arrived.. No longer a Digital Multicolour Nightmare, Next job, refit Bonnet/Sun Roof panel and a few bits of trim removed in the shop, then its the Polishing Mop. The whole car, of course, because there'll be some pigmentation tiredness on the existing paint, even tho the same can of paint was used five years ago. Anyway we live in hopes. Click any Image to EnlargeThis car was my introduction to the Rover SD1 in '93 and I soon undertook its first restoration. I spent the intervening 16 years trying to learn everything I could about the car, particularly the electronic fuel injection system and its many other technicalities. Having written essays about the car for magazines and forums over the years I decided to bring them together along with all the new technical material now featured on this website here and the full story of that original restoration during my first full year of ownership here. A second major restoration took place in '04 with various minor blemish resto's in between times. The current work is due to paint finish failure on bonnet and roof plus the few scabs shown above taken in hand at the same time.
