Argus race series,circa 1972 Hillman Imp 75F

A flash from the past,a picture said to exist in a fellow Impers collection,taken in 1972 at the Killarney Race Track just outside Cape Town City,thanks to Eric for the loan of his picture.

The car ran a 998cc Imp engine using parts imported from the Rootes Competitions Department in England,even though I used the less favorable Mk1 engine block,the car went well and I had got to forth position in the Argus championship that year when the organisers chose to ban the car outright.Thats a story writen in another blog I think.
