Alfred Godfrey Imhof (6 May 1911 – 27 August 1963) was a British racing driver who competed in trials, rallies and hill climbs. He won the 1952 RAC Rally driving an Allard-Cadillac J2. Before World War II he raced with Ben Richardson and Michael Lawson in the Candidi Provocatores team on a 1936 LM Speed Model (BBY 333). After the war he worked as an industrial designer for Allard, helping design the K1 (two-seater), L1 (four-seater) and the J1 racer, which he owned and raced from 1946 to 1949. He later became a London-based industrialist, owning the Gramophone Company's recorder factory on Oxford Street in the 1950s. His sister Barbara Kathleen "Betty" married Major Arthur Frayling; their sons include Nicholas Frayling and Sir Christopher Frayling.
