Singer Chamois Sport
1968 model
(upmarket Hillman Imp)
Made at the Linwood plant, just outside Glasgow.
Limited number produced. In production for 3 years only, from October 1966 to December 1969. Walnut dashboard, twin Stromberg carburettors, 875cc engine, originally, but now has a Talbot Sunbeam 930cc engine.
Original paintwork. Been in my family for around 15 years, my brother bought it in the mid-90s and then I bought it off him 3 years ago. The log book says that it only had one previous owner before my brother. It had been off the road for around 10 year when I got it. Just had to free up the brakes and it went straight through an MoT.
More work to do, such as rear wheel arches need replacing and paintwork needs a complete respray.
