I am just in the process of putting some unwanted parts on Ebay. I was just about to put my Landar alloy rocker cover on and did a quick search to find out what it may be worth. Now the reason I took it off the car was because I knew it would not have been on the car when it was made (1968). However, after searching I have found that the Landar cars were produced in the late 60s. My questions to all reading this are, would you recommend putting it back on my car as a period feature to replace my pressed steel standard cover, and if not, what do you think it would be worth if I decided to sell?

If you like it, refit it.
If you do sell, start the bidding at £50, but wait a week before you do as I have a HRG cover on there at the moment and it will probably be beneficial to both of us if there werent 2 period covers on at the same time.

Landar Alloy Rockercover.

This alloy rockercover was produced specifically for use on a "Landar" kit car. This rear engined Mini derived racing car was produced in small numbers towards the end of the 1960's. There are a few surviving examples but there are a few more of the rockercovers now. Click on image opposite for better view.

i love that . i'd have it if it wasnt so rare and probably lots of money. plus i dont need any more rocker covers

Just tried fitting this on my car and the Embossed logo is upside down. Suppose the reason behind that is because the engine in a Landar is in the back of the car
