Why does it need new paint? Looks damn near perfect to me just as it is.

Found out my dad killed a hillman imp at work the other day buy hitting it with a van.

Apparently it used to be the owners dads and he spent 2 years restoring it. The driver got a broken collarbone and dislocated shoulder to boot!

Did your Dad get the sack? Sacrilege. My Mum used to have a Hillman Imp in aqua marine blue when I were a nipper.
Been looking for those pics Loony. Must've filed them under the Pop photos as they were taken at the workshop. Any idea what date that'd be?
