Seems to have cream wheels and Hillman lettering badge below number plate as 63-67, but for me the key element is the plain chrome strip inside the side crease which is 68+ Deluxe only. Not a Chamois or Super Imp as plain wheels and no colour element within the side chrome, nor any rear pillar badges.

In Sweden it was called Sunbeam 900 (and not Chrysler 900)
