*A brief history of the Hillman Hunter
Rootes first introduced the new Hillman Hunter in October 1966. The Hunter was the key, lead model in a range of Rootes Group mid-size cars, code-named 'Arrow'. It was followed, according to Rootes convention, by badge-engineered Singer and Humber versions plus the fastback Sunbeam Rapier. In autumn 1967 just a year after its launch, the Hunter received its first update becoming the Mark II when it adopted the rectangular headlamp-look of the Singer Vogue version together with a new grille design. The aim was to provide visual differentiation from its economy Hillman Minx sibling. The cheaper Minx version of the Hunter had been introduced early in 1967 and was visually indistinguishable from the more upmarket Hunter bar the deletion of some chrome trim. There were further small revisions in autumn 1970 when Chrysler UK (as Rootes had now become) adopted a rationalisation policy for the 'Arrow' range of cars following the decision to drop the Singer brand. This resulted in the Hillman Hunter name and front-grille look being applied across the entire 'Arrow' range (with the exception of the Humber Sceptre and the fastback Sunbeams). 

In March 1972, there were further revisions to the Hunter, most notably a new dashboard and a slightly revised split-grille design. At the same time, the Hunter GLS featuring a similar look to the Humber Sceptre was introduced. These are the cars featured in this brochure issued in August 1972 for the 1973 model year. Next in autumn 1974, the by-now ageing Hunter received a larger, more prominent grille design and a trim panel between the rear lights in an attempt to give it a more contemporary look. Finally in autumn 1977, the Hunter lost its Hillman branding and became a Chrysler (the Hunter was the last Chrysler UK car to retain Hillman branding; the Avenger had become a Chrysler the previous year). At this time the Hunter range was further slimmed down to just De Luxe and Super models with both being given the twin-headlamp look of the previous Hillman Hunter GLS and Humber Sceptre models. After 13 years the Hunter finally bowed out in the summer of 1979 (for the last few years or so production had been moved out from Linwood to a Rootes CKD assembly plant outside Dublin). Famously of course, the Hunter in its Iranian 'Paykan' form continued in production for many more years - up until 2005, in fact, with a pick-up version even remaining on sale until 2015.
