quick vid to introduce my car to you all
1966 hillman imp running a hartwell 1040 modified by Andy Jones of Shrigley engineering big valve ported head twin 40 webers on hartwell manifold breathing through my own design airbox
the shell is fully seam welded and skidded and forest rallying prepared bespoke wiring loom Atec stainless steel brake lines running inside the car.
as i learn to use this forum i will update with the build pictures, the car is currently having a serious clean and freshen up after competing in 2015 usually a class win on every event (pre 1967 up to 1500cc classs) one outright win on the blue streak targa rally beating all the modern cars as well. North of England classic rally championship winners 2015.
i have owned the car for 24 years and competed in it most years when the funds allow.
regards mike

Very cool. I did a tagga rally with the wife in my mk1 Escort a few years ago. I felt the stress of "where am I going next" watching that. It motors along fair play. More updates required.

That's fabulous. I really miss my old Imps, the engine sounds great.

That looks fantastic. Can't beat the sound of an Imp at full pelt. It looks an absolute hoot to drive.
