Rover training paperwork

wullie480 · 29th October 2016, 21:53

Fella at work is ex rover mechanic & is moving house so was going to throw out all his old rover stuff as he doesn't need it. He asked if I'd be interested so I said yes & he gave me the first lot today.
It may all be useless to me but I'll have a mooch at it & see.

I rescued all our workshop manuals once they were no longer required. Unfortunately I had nowhere really to store them so they had to go in the garage which isn't the best of places as it's a little damp 😟 The wiring diagram folders are brilliant as they are laminated and come with a whiteboard marker so you can draw on them and make notes as you go along

These items are always worth preserving. They will be of use at some point to someone. If they end up in the bin then they are gone forever. Good on you for keeping them

Just thinking aloud really...

How hard would it be to ask the copyright holder if you or club can electronically archive these and allow use for enthusiasts?

That's a good shout. The forum I am a member of for my Supra have the Toyota workshop manuals PDFed on the forum and if you are a paid up member you can download them. Might be worth the Mods asking the question

Not had a chance to go through as I've been busy extending our hutches & run as we've taken on another rescue bunny.
I'll have a mooch through it this week and see what's there.
The printed stuff is some technical bulletins which the fella I got them from were dished out for all the mechanics to have.
Stuff in the folders will hopefully be useful as it was given out during training sessions.

Ok dokey came across these whilst clearing the shed as I’m MG less are they any use to the club?

Some members maybe interested but think it only fair the club gets first refusal.
