Roys Hillman Imp years

The Hillman Imp, my first car, I had my UK drivers licence at the age of 17, the next thing was to buy a Mk1 Imp. I now realise that with my fifty (50) years of Imp experience, I may have some past tips on the Imp to pass on? Since then there have been many other cars and things with motors in them that have come my way, this blog is about some of them. There is also a large inventory of Imp parts in stock, view the main blog on boats at http://ckdboats.blogspot.com/

Why not view our other blog at CKD Boats cc

Bob Allan, the Imp spares man

We visited Bob at his home ten years back, he had some parts for us and being quite close to Liverpool where we were staying, it made sense to drop in and meet the guy.

Jean chats to Bob, check inside the garage, thats the Fraser special K9, or Killeen 9, built to race at Le Mans but never made it. Bobs Californian is a 1968 model, it has disc brakes on the front and a 998cc engine in the back.
