Ah! It all becomes clear now!
The bumper covers with the rubber contact pads (two on each
bumper) are different I believe between the later series Alpines and the
Imps. At least the two 65 models that I had of these cars. Although, I
did not have them at the same time, I believe that the Alpine bumpers
were larger and the covers were a slightly different shape, although
similar. I could be wrong. If someone has the parts books, they will
tell the real story in part numbers.
A great line from the movie "I married an Axe Murderer" with
Mike Myers......If it ain't Scottish, It's Crrrrap !
(The little Imp was built in Glascow in a spendy fancy factory)
