Hi Frank, Your experience is very typical. My last rusty bare shell rebuild (a Lancia Montecarlo) took about 1,000 hours, but that was my third, and it was probably not as thorough as yours. Professi

As you say, Jan, known as the Sunbeam Rapier in the UK, and was very much a coupe version of the Hillman Hunter, rather than a development of the Rapier Mk V. Rootes were styling magpies, with a tend

The Imp styling always seemed to me to owe a lot to a couple of other rear-engined cars: the NSU and the Chevrolet Corvair. Zagato UK did a special-bodied sports version of the Imp, but it wasn't as

There are lots of ways of sorting out an unadjustable gap. (Sunk valves would tend to close up gaps, which is the opposite of what you are experiencing.) Replacing all the rockers seems a little extr

Imps are great. They used an all-alloy Coventry Climax racing engine (MAE?) design with OHC and bucket tappets, more advanced than the current BMW Mini engine for example. The same engine design also

I am surprised this worked. Alfas usually have a 98mm PCD, same as Fiat/Lancia 4-bolters. Small UK Ford and Alpine/Rapier are 108mm. Try also Small Audis, Citroen BX, Mazda 121, Peugeot, Saab 900. Th

Alpine wheels have the same PCD as UK Ford (& Pug), so one of the best sources of used Minilites that would fit, though they are usually 13", is usedrallyparts.co.uk. You will have to check the offse
