Hillman Imp? |

Maybe something sportier, like Imp Californian with those small vents below the rear window? /vehicle_979530-Hillman-Imp-Californian-1967.html |

I don't think a Sunbean Stiletto because it apparently lacks the vinyl roof. I would think a Hillman Imp Californian but DSL should give us the correct verdict. Californian, Chamois or Stiletto ? |

He said a few days ago that he's away on business and where he is at has limited internet, so he can only stop by for brief moments right now. |

I'm back after 10 storm-lashed days on Orkney. Which was an experience. Agree not a Stiletto - no vinyl roof, and doesn't have slatted rear panel. Badge looks like Hillman script and not Singer (Chamois) plaque, so Californian gets it. Early one before 69 facelift as it doesn't have the shiny trim panel (similar to 69+ Super Imp). |

Poor dsl (about the storm). An Italian girl living in UK told me it was very serious... You really know a lot about these litthe fabulous cars. I didn't want you tu urge... sorry if I looked unpolite. |

My dad worked for Rootes, so we had lots of Imps when I was a child. Just been checking pictures to reassure myself that it is a Hillman badge rather than Singer, and now I'm not so sure. The other issue is that as far as I can tell, the side trim on Californians and Super Imps was always a black fill, even on dark colours. So a white fill suggests a Singer, which before the facelift had over-riders but they were removed in 1969. So renaming as Chamois. |
