Looks like #45, RHD (so maybe UK entry), plain all-over livery (so not one of the main Imp teams of the period like Fraser, Hartwell or Payne). 66 too early for Sunbeam Imp Sport. Nothing found as definite match for Zandvoort. But "Mike Gordon-Smith (GB) competed in the Grand Touring 1300 class (GT1.3) on Zandvoort [GT] 30 May 1966, comp. no. 49. In this class he had the fastest lap in his Hillman Imp, exactly as fast as Cornelis van der Leden (NL) in his Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Zagato: 1:58.900, doing 126.953 km/h. He finished 2nd in class, behind Van der Leden." is somewhere close - http://www.imps4ever.info/racing/races/index.html (about halfway down, also an undated photo of a LHD mid-60s Hillman Imp #48 at Zandvoort, so semms they were reasonably common competitors). |

Update - must be #49 Mike Gordon-Smith as the Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Zagato is #45. |
