Hi folks,

I have just had a phone call from Tim Field in Campbelltown NSW who is looking
for a Hillman Imp - condition relatively unimportant as long at is basically
complete and sound.  If you know of anything of interest you might like to
contact Tim on 0409 362274.  I have also suggested that he join this group.

Cheers, Vic

Interested in a footrest pending price
