Dear Rovers North, The Sightings contest has been a family favorite for decades, and with my 4 daughters living across the country, they have taken to sending me sightings of Land Rovers when they spot them. The grandkids are being indoctrinated into the details of Land Rovers, so your job looks secure for the future!! David Ducat Lebanon, CT [We’ve run Sightings ever since the earliest days of publication, and it remains as much a fan favorite of readers as it is for the extended Ducat family. -ed.]
Dear Rovers North, It’s rare to have twins in my shop! The first Land Rover (top photo) was sent to me by the owner, and he and his grandson drove it back to PA a couple of weeks ago. The second one (bottom photo) is of the original owner who brought it here 10 years ago; when I completed the restoration recently, he wanted to see it before it went off to its current owner. Lanny Clark Colchester, VT [Thanks for sharing your superb restorations with our readers -ed.] Dear Rovers North, The Summer/Fall 2021 edition of Rovers Magazine has an article by Chris Holewski on Bill Cooper’s collection in NJ. Could you send this photo to Bill? I think he’ll find it interesting. The article mentions 4 Pinkies in the US. Do you know where the others are?
Dear Rovers North, The attached photo was taken on the first day of school, Fall, 2021, for Juliet and Pierce Hyams with “Winston,” our 1970 IIA. Also, I had a ‘66 IIA that you guys helped me with back around 1994. The kids’ favorite car was our 1999 Discovery II, “Red Rover,” in which they each came home from the hospital in Fairfax, VA. “Winston” recently came to us from a friend in Alexandria, VA, all the way to Louisiana where we now live.
Cheers, Chris Marrison Garrison, NY
