Saw a really nice saloon.

[Simon TR4a]

At a big barbecue last Saturday I was surprised to see a really nice Rover, possibly from the 1940's as it had running boards and fenders separate from the body.
Beautiful interior, and the boot basically a box behind the rear seat, a conventional saloon of that era basically, but with a very nice interior and sort of a friendly, comfortable look.
Viking boat badge on the grille, I think, but I didn't have my camera so I could be wrong about that, and I think it was used for many years anyway, so that may not help.
Maybe someone can say what it was?

I wonder if it might be Rovernut's car? He has a 1948 Rover P3, and his brother lives in your area, here is that Rover... https://www.britishcarforum.com/bcforum/photopost/showphoto.php/photo/571

Sorry it wouldn't have been mine which is pictured in the members car pictures............My P3 is acting up at the moment and i haven't had time to address its misfire......

Although P3's are seen around most are the 6 light version and not the 4 light like mine........I have tracked down only 10 of these in North America and 3 are rusting hulks waiting to be restored

There is a Rover 75 privately for sale here in Fort Collins. Runs well and is in great shape. I'll see if I can get photos out to anyone interested.

Send it to Steve - I don't think he's bought a car yet, and I know he's partial to the old Rovers...
