Many thanks for the use of this picture,Roy
 
The scene was mid sixties but the photo can be taken again most weekends even today,such is the size of the classic car racing scene world wide. I will be assembling a look a like Fraser Hillman Imp quite soon,check the car on the left with the white cross on its roof.
 
As of next week I will be in the UK for ten days,parts will be collected from Bob Allen of the Imp Club Spares Dept and also Ron Aspinwall of Impspeed,both are in Englands North West in the Merseyside/Liverpool region.
