1967 Sunbeam Imp

Never heard of Sunbeam? It's the name that Chrysler Europe chose for the British Hillman in the US. Max's red convertible in Get Smart! was a Subeam Tiger.

Observations:
* These cars were known for poor reliability even when new. The fact that one is still running today is a real miracle.
* Note the twin handles for opening the trunk (that's where the engine is). Love the hatchback rear window.
* This particular Imp was also featured on seattlesparkedcars in 2014.
