Is it worth it? No.
Seen this ad a while back. He can't sell it but keeps trying.
With that sort of money I'd go for a genuine 60s Radford Mini. ??

If you want Davo I can scratch "Paddy Hopkirk" in the side of yours. That'll increase its worth no-end....

What is it?

Is it actually a limited edition special Rover? What does 3/74 mean?

Is this just a random jumble of (ugly) bits?

That's what I thought, but there's no way in the world this is a '74 model, and I can't think of the month having any significance.

Basically in a nut shell,



Patty Hopkirk was a Monte Carlo champion so he got together with John Cooper and designed a limited edition as you see it.



This is the only one in Australia and was imported over here by a dear friend who is no longer with us.



We regret the sale but also can't handle this beauty sitting around in a shed being wasted. We don't have the time to utilise its potential
