Solved - MJW #743 - Wilkinson Scrimp 1965
« on: December 16, 2011, 11:42:24 PM »
I don't believe this small sports car has been posted before so identify its name, who built it, what engine it was fitted with and the year it was built.
One point for the complete and correct answer.

This is a 1965 Scrimp, based on a Hillman Imp ( so a Hillman Imp engine ) and build by Wilkinson Automotive Developments.

Yes, that's the car.
I believe a full article is being written on this interesting little car at the moment.
Another point for you.
