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/

The Springbok Series,around 1968

The series started at the Kayalami circuit, then the WPMC at Cape Towns Killarney circuit were asked to host races as well, this in effect off loaded a lot of the cost to ship the cars and drivers over from the UK and Europe.
