I've listed my (NADA) 1980 Rover SD1 on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2489584602
Good for parts or restoration, perfect source for a TR7->TR8 conversion, or
spare parts for a TR8. Good EFI system when I stopped driving it. Good
engine, 5-speed trans (clutch lever fell off pivot when the slave blew
out). Lots of unused parts, including 13-row oil cooler, head gaskets,
full hose set, uprated bushings, etc.
Just don't have time for it and haven't for the last 4 years. Fun to work
on/drive; that V8 really has torque. I'm keeping the 1970 TR6 (which only
needs minor work to get back on the road) and 1966 MG Midget (no-rust
Calif. shell, needs total mechanical/ electrical rebuild and minor accident
repair). One day I'll find time to work on them; right now the house and
grounds are the priority.
