Hi Matthew and All,
One of the latest Rover mags collected in the UK talked about the
different 
seat in the early 109 10 seat and later 12 seat.  From past experience
with 
Nick Chinery's, I felt that the 107 SW had more room than any 109 or
110 I'd ever 
sat in, now I know why.  So, perhaps the 107 and early 109 ( up to
1960?) 
shared the seat mechanism?  The 12 seat minibus rule was a tax dodge,
which Rover 
exploited.
We just viewed a 107 SW in the UK and was missing the rear seat. 
Perhaps it 
isn't quite as impossible to locate as I first thought if shared with
some 
early 109 SW.  Anyone been down this road? 
And BTW, Dunsfold has/had a Steve Walker 107 SW chassis FS $1000 UKP. 
Not 
galvanized but fitted out for LHD or RHD.  And there is this 107 SW
near 
Huddersfield that needs a home......
I am saving my money for Micheal Burns Tickford.  Buy the time the next

owner( whomever it may be) gets tired if it, I might have enough.  If
not, I could 
learn more about reincarnation and hope for one in the next life.
