Hi, I’m new to this forum so the first thing I am asking is probably common knowledge. Are the Autosport archives available on-line?
I am researching Rover 14hp Special WJ 7040 built for hill climbs and trials just prior to WW2 by Alan Eadon. There was an article written by the man himself in Autocar, May 1945. I know it was subsequently owned and campaigned by Bruce Spollen, ex leading light in the VSCC. The last information I have is that it appears to have been in the Wolverhampton area in June 1948, possibly owned by someone called Jim Draper. I would be most grateful for any information from magazine reports of trials and hill climbs of the period or indeed any other information on the car.
