Hi Jack, good to have you on board mate! saw your post on members projects before this so excuse the question about where you are!

Think we may have met, did I buy a set of minilite wheels off you last summer?

Either way the car looks awesome and Id love to see it some time. As Lee said its good to have some more imper's on the side!

Yes, just reply to the last thread befor this one lol, Yea that was my other imp, sold it and bought this one, most of the work was bogded or just no looking nice, so rebuild most of the car apart from the rear wheel are is rusty , i hate body work lol

Oh no!! Not another steam machine!! Hello jack, welcome to the club!! Poor Richard needs all the back up he can get!!! Hope to see you soon!!

O was merely pointing a little fact out, you know, not being bitchy or anything!!! Lol

Dont worry Jack, there has been plenty of Imp vs mini banter on the forum already! Luke and Alan on here are the die hard mini fans and some other members run minis. Me, my brother and Kris all run imps. Kris has a derrington tuned 998 in his with chesman head etc.

I should think with the mods you have made cooling will not be an issue! Personally all mine would benefit from front rad conversions. Its not running them that causes them to get hot but getting stuck in traffic. Kris's one is set up for comp use so it doesnt like traffic!

Doesnt matter what other people think about imps fact is they are a hoot to drive and a bit more exclusive than a mini

yesh , the rad a fan moves some serouis air, should work lol, should be able to have a look aug, sep time yous looks nice to , would be nice to meet other impers around kent lol

Cheers mate. My stiletto needs some rust work so is far from mint but will come off the road over winter for this to be sorted and hopefully my other stiletto will be in use then. I am painting it tangerine metallic (copper) at the mo. It was green.

Here is a link to my fleet if you want to have a look;

The singer is ok, It has a few small dings but Im not that precious about it as its for using!

My other imp is a longer term project and not pictured but will be turbo'd

ah sweet shall have a look, yea my rear archs need some work, i have some enigne plans for mine, you shall all see over the winter

Dis you say a bit more exclusive than a mini??? Pmsl!!! Oh come on!! Don't you mean elusive!! Due to not being seen cos they can't get em selves out of their garages without overheating!!! Funny how vw knew rear engine would cause overheating so they made the dirty bug air cooled!! Then hillman found out why vw went air cooled!!! All joking aside I do actually like the imp/stilettos, but would not own one as I would get the hump with it breaking down all the time, where as a mini has it's engine in the right place and is a little teeny weeny bit more trust worthy than your mobile kettles!!

MINIS RULE>>>>>> So there....... lol
