Hi Franka,

We actually met briefly at Imp '07. I just thought I would send you a few pictures of my '70 Stiletto in case you wished to use them on The Imp Site at any point? FDH 44H won 'Best Stiletto.' I see there are a few other pictures from Imp '07 in the various sections. My car was actually featured in Impressions last month, and it has been in my family since new; first owned by my grandparents and then was given to me on my 17th birthday.

All the best,

Martin Dingle

p.s. purple bug belongs to my other half!
