When I worked in Red Garages as an apprentice in the 60's, I used to work on some wonderfully named vehicles, such as the Humber Hawk, Snipe and Super Snipe, Imperial and Sceptre, the Singer Gazelle and Chamois, the Hillman Minx, Husky, Super Minx, Avenger, Imp and Californian, Sunbeam Rapier and Alpine (and the Ford engined V8 Sunbeam Tiger), all of which were under the Rootes Group which later became Chrysler before being lost altogether. I remember going to Rootes Coventry Factory to pick up some spares and seeing the prototype Imp (which was code-named the "Rootes Baby") before it was released to the press. When my mates back at Red's asked what it looked like I said it had a rear-engine and gearbox unit with a Coventry Climax designed engine (which was positioned on its side and you could remove in half an hour!) and had a rear window like an Austin A40 Farina. They thought I was hallucinating but later apologised when it was released. My mother had a Super Imp for many years and had no trouble and my second car (after a 1946 Austin 10 which cost £5) was a Hillman Husky (circa 1957 with a side-valve engine) which was a great little motor at the time, and in later years a Minivan, a Cortina and an Avenger before settling on various Fords ever since.
