Correct!

One last pic, our Rob won an award for best young enthusiast which given the amount of detail work he's been doing to the Imp was well deserved.
He was up against some stiff competition though with another youngster in a mk1 fiesta supersport. Good to see it's not all us old fogies :lol:

I did the basis of the car, he's the one that's done all the detail work that got him the award, proud of him 8-)

He also got a nice mention from the club chairman John Simpson which was nice.

Guy there from practical classics magazine taking snaps and doing the prize-giving, will have to look out for the magazine. Might even get my car in it!

Ok so I know it’s not the best picture so here’s few clues . It’s open topped British and has a tubular spaceframe chassis. This example had unpainted coachwork

It’s Not a Caterham . I’d say it’s more of an industrial vehicle.

Ok here goes
1)Fiat topolino ?
2) these look familiar but can’t. Quite place them.
3 Toyota Celica supra (mid 80s)
4) 65ish Chevrolet Corvair.
5). Ford E-Series van (available as pick ups and mini busses etc) I believe the Scooby Doo mystery machine was based on a Ford E-series.

I am with Lou on the Toyota, is it the 2.8 L model (before they dropped the Celica name for the Supra)
Vents look like a Ferrari 330 GTE or maybe 275GTS ?
Corvair and Ford Econoline but I dont know the years.

They got rare because some of them have been used as donor cars to make recreation 250 SWB and GTO's. :o

You can see why I thought also a 275 GTS.

It's a no from me Tony, unless I could sell the plate to someone we all know. :lol: It looks like a Ford Ka.

Is the first one of those Micra based cars we never officially got here like the Figaro, and the last looks a bit '80's TVR wedge like.
