National weekend 1993- I took this photo to prove my car actually got there!
(it was a long way from Birmingham to North Yorkshire ;with a clapped out car, running a MK1 'curly edge' block with replacement stud/bolt, carb was falling to bits and had to be bodged with lots of washers and some tape!).
Simon Benoy in the Imp took 1st place in the under 1300cc HSCC Historic Touring Car Championship at the Wolds Trophy Meeting at Cadwell Park.
A recent posting by Renown featuring his beloved Hillman Imp, reminded me that I'd taken this photo for him earlier this year. Not being a Ford, I'd forgotten that I'd taken the photo, indeed my associates questioned why I was pointing the camera at a non-Ford car.
This Imp, in a lovely shade of red, was parked at Bridgnorth Station on the Severn Valley Railway's 1960s day in February 2009.
