Produced by the British automaker Rootes Group, the Sunbeam Alpine is a quintessential British two-seater sports car that first began production in 1953. During its six-year production run, the Alpine saw five different series, the latest being an example of what is featured here today. During this five-series run, the Alpine played a major role in British motorsport history, most notably at Le Mans, where it won the Thermal Index of Efficiency in 1961. This Sunbeam Alpine roadster has reportedly seen just 100 miles on the road since it received a rebuild. According to the current seller, this series-V Sunbeam has an array of upgrades and is currently up for sale in Maryland for anyone looking to pick up a piece of iconic British automotive craftsmanship.
Carroll Shelby’s work in stuffing American engines into compact British roadsters is well documented with the AC Cobra or Shelby Cobra. But did you know that the great man was also responsible for something called the Sunbeam Tiger? Sunbeam was another well-known maker of pert British roadsters. Shelby took their cutesy Alpine two-seater and stuffed, surprise surprise, a Ford V8 under its hood. Sunbeam liked the idea, and although they contracted fellow British automaker Jensen to make the car instead of Shelby, they paid him a royalty on every car sold. Today, we have one of these relatively rare birds for sale, a 1965 Sunbeam Tiger from Paw Paw, Michigan. The car has done under 95,000 miles and has got some enhancements to make it even sweeter to drive.
