XHS 27, (Hillman Imp DeLuxe ?)

XHS 27
    An early Hillman Imp

This gentleman paid a professional photographer to take his picture with (likely) his brandnew Imp. The photographer numbered these photos and put his stamp on the rear:
Peter R. Smith
37, Newcastle Avenue
Calderbank, Airdie
phone no. Airdrie 4638

Airdrie is just above the M8 from Glasgow to Edinburgh, 25 miles from Linwood.

This is photo 123/5

I am guessing it is an Imp de Luxe in stead of an Imp as the owner was willing to pay for extras like white wall tyres and overriders.

Old Classic Car got hold of the same photos. I wonder what the numbers on his are...
