<div style="color:black;font: 10pt arial;">You will have a
problem finding a series II bonnet in N.America as that model
was very rare. The V8 bonnet will fit, but it has holes for
the air scoops, so you will need to fit a complete used unit.
There is a new V8 bonnet in the US on Ebay, but it is just
the bare panel, without the scoops etc/
<div><br>
</div>
<div>You will find plenty of series II bonnets in the UK, but
shipping will be very expensive. I have one new one which
has a few imperfections, but you would do better to look on
Ebay for a used one.</div>

<p>Pierre,</p>
<p>One of my Rover adventures was stripping all of the Series II
parts off of a rusty car in the New York City are and bringing
them back to Philadelphia. Later, I drove the Series II bonnet
to Syracuse, NY for Hank Manwell tied to the roof of a vehicle
of some sort. Might have been the Volvo 940. That car was a
4-cylinder non-turbo wagon that I towed TWO SD1s home with. One
came from Long Island, NY and the other from Richmond, Virginia.
Both towed backwards with the rear wheels up. The Long Island
one went over the Verrazzano Narrows Bridge which is really high
and has a sort of cloverleaf approach ramp. Very steep. Felt
like I was 300 feet up in the air.</p>

<div>Hi All:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>My Series II Federal 2000 TC is finally
roadworthy. It has gone through the hands of
several mechanics over the past few years but
ultimately Arlo at Imported Car Center Auto
Sport in Burlington VT has now sorted
everything out. Transmission replaced; engine
rebuilt; etc. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The hood had blown off while being test
driven by an earlier mechanic and is no longer
useable. Arlo has sourced a hood from Florida
and has tried to install it but it apparently
is not a Series II hood nor one for a V8.
(It's temporarily kept in place with those
metal rings which I don't like at all.)</div>
<div> </div>
<div><span style="background-color:yellow;">Does
anyone have a hood, or know of one, that
will fit this car?</span> I am told that
any V8 hood will fit.</div>
<div>The engine ID plate says 7/71 is the build
date. VIN is 43500220A.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I also need new A/C components aside from
the heavy bracket. What is the modern
compressor and other engine bay AC parts that
will fit? Sanden? </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thank you.</div>
