It's my first Rover and I'm having a lot of fun with it.
Rebuilt the master cylinder and front wheel cylinders today and got it all back together.
Next is getting the wiper motor, heater, and tail/brake lights to work.`
Working on a new coat of camo as well.
NICE ! I like the S3 Lightweight the best. Where are you located?
I'm in Northern California north of San Francisco. I'll post some pics when I finish the camo touch up.
Anyone have luck getting Nato Green in the states? Spray can would be good but I need something for the top as well. What type of paint is recommended for canvas?
Location: Bloomfield, CT If I died today, I lived there all my life.

At the risk of repeating myself; NICE!
There is a woman who sells all current and recent paint used by NATO, and US Military vehicles. It's been years since I've gotten a new issue, but she used to advertise in Military Vehicles magazine. Let me scrounge around and see if I can find her info.
Here's a pic of the new camo but it keeps evolving.
If it helps you the rule for British army camo is 2/3 green 1/3 black. All corners should be black to break up the outline of the vehicle. After that it is up to the artistic license of the sqaddy.
Thanks for the advice. I keep changing it but at least it's easy with the rattle cans. I wanted to use flat paint but already it seems like it will be tough to maintain. I'm thinking I will hit it with some satin clear when I'm satisfied. Here's some updated pics
