The views or opinions expressed by individuals are not necessarily those of the club. Web: www.trccoo.freeservers.com IGNITION. October 2003. This months meeting had the normal number of attendees, see meeting minutes, with discussions centred on the Centennial Rally and the proposal to submit a "remit" to the upcoming ARCC AGM in Queenstown "that the ARCC annual rally be held on a bi-annual basis between the North & South Islands". This "remit" is to be submitted. Last weekend was the McLeans Island Swap meet which was held on a busy sports weekend this year it seems. We are hoping for a good turnout of Rovers at the Tokomaru A& P Show, Milton on December 13th. Good weather guaranteed at that time (we hope), with an evening BBQ. There is also the West Otago A& P Show at Tapanui on the 22nd November. So with the warmer weather on the horizon we have some very good excuses to go Roving. My P5 Coupe is back on the road again while Reid is having the upholstery re- vitalised at present. Another very original and barely run in P4 is at present having some TLC at Walton’s, but I'll leave the "engine room" to comment on this item in due course. The Rally committee meeting this month at "Bernie’s" , discussed sponsorship and concern that Rally information news updates were not apparently being published by some of the other Rover Clubs. Regarding sponsors, each member is being asked to obtain one sponsors products. This will allow us to have a number of fun as well as the normal ARCC awards. Well that enough from me, see you at the next monthly meeting or Tapanui or Milton. Safe & Happy Roving.

James Worth Photos by MrlanMltch and Alan Milstead ROVER IN THE THIRTIES The history of Rover is, to an extent, a history of paradox, encompassing as it does a manufacturing policy which seems to have espoused, alternately, ultra utility and solid middle class quality and which at times has produced both simultaneously. From the E. W. Lewis-designed single cylinder cars pf 1904 the company graduated to the well-made Clegg-designed Twelve which remained in production from 1912 until 1924, and Sunbeams were built during the 1914-1918 war for the War Department. The immediate post-Great war period, however, saw the introduction of the air-cooled flat-twin Eight, a near cycle-car which was eventually killed off by the Austin Seven, but only after some 17,000 had found customers up to 1925, The latter half of the twenties saw production split between worthy but not very exciting OHB Tens on the one hand, and expensive and advanced four cylinder overhead camshaft types with 2.2 and 2.5 litre engines, with hemispherical combustion chambers. The smaller of these, the 14/45 won the RAC’s Dewar Trophy for fifty consecutive ascents of Bwlch-y-Groes.

  • Rover – Perceptions and Facts Part

    Rover – Perceptions and Facts Part

    ROVER – PERCEPTIONS AND FACTS PART ONE By Graeme Tutt Over the years, many comments have been made regarding the performance of the various Rover models. Two that spring to mind are: "A P6 2000 auto has a better performance than any six cylinder Rover" “A P6 TC is fast as a P6B 3500 auto” Those types of comments made me realise that, my opinions, although long held, were based on nothing more than perceptions and that I had never seen any firm objective comparative data which compared the relative performance of the various Rovers models and that as a result, there was no firm basis for my views. In order to address this, I have sourced and collated performance figures for the P4, P5, P5B, P6 and P6B, however, in so doing, I increasingly began to wonder, not only just how the Rover of each era compared with each other but also, how they compared with their contemporaries, rivals and the “common garden” vehicles of each successive era.. This article thus consists of two separate parts. The first part compares the Rover models against each other and then goes on to compare the P4 against its contemporaries during what I have called the "P4 Era" - mid 1950's to early 1960’s. The second part of the article compares the P5/P5B and P6/P6B against their respective contemporary rivals. In sourcing data, I have utilised period road tests from the respected journals of the day in UK, USA and Australia, James Taylor books and the net - I have avoided current day "gee-whiz" classic car magazines for obvious reasons.

Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Title: Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Creator: Ludvigsen, Karl E. Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.
