Hillman Imp GT For Sale

May 2nd, 2010 . by Nigel Honey

This is a post to say both my Hillman Imp GT cars are for sale. Opportunities to buy a pair of these very rare cars for restoration do not come up often.

Please give me a call on 0423 945 085 or send me an email if you are interested.

The Imps are in Hobart but we can arrange shipping interstate at the buyers expense.

Suspension Bushes

December 22nd, 2009 . by Nigel Honey

Had a bag of new Fulcrum suspension bushes arrive today from Frank. Plan is to fit these to the spare suspension after I get it blasted and painted, and swap it over into the car, meaning the car wont have to sit on blocks.

Windscreen and other ramblings

August 20th, 2008 . by Nigel Honey

Well my new laminated windscreen is finally in Australia. Now we just need to get it to Hobart.
I am still hunting for a panel beater / spray painter to do the body work as well.
Hopefully the weather will start to fine up again soon so I get motivated to do some work on the Imp.
I have also been wondering about the Smart FourTwo powerplant. I don’t know a great deal about them but they are RWD, I guess mid mounted? Three cylinder 900cc I think, with a turbo version too. I wonder if it could be made to fit an Imp?

1/4 vent seals from Frank

July 11th, 2008 . by Nigel Honey

Well here we are, the future is here. I am sitting in my lounge room writing my blog on my iPhones tiny virtual keys so excuse the typos here and there! My 1/4 vent rubbers arrived from Frank the other day and while it will be some time before I can fit them they are great quality and Frank is to be applauded and supported by the Imp community for his efforts in keeping the marque alive. I will try get some pix up soon.

Parts on the Table

Excellent!   There is a cardboard box on my kitchen table at the moment containing an Imp Sport head, GT distributor, and oil cooler fittings.  Excitement!  I will have to get some pictures later on.
