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.
Exterior and Interior
Over 7,000 cars were made, and this 1965 Sunbeam Tiger is one of those proud examples. It’s got a custom orange paint job with a custom pin stripe and rides on Panasport racing wheels shod with BF Goodrich tires. Yes, it looks every bit the spunky and cheeky British roadster that it is, until the Ford V8 fires up and then you realize that this car is quite capable too. We’re told that the top has been previously replaced as well. The black and orange two-tone interior of this 1965 Sunbeam Tiger has reportedly been overhauled and features replaced carpeting, replaced seat covers and replaced door panels. There’s an aftermarket steering wheel as well. The dashboard features wood trim as befits British roadsters from the Sixties that wanted to have some luxury connotations too. A fire extinguisher sits in the center of the car as well, and it’s a great addition for any classic car, if just for that extra peace of mind. Pop the trunk and you’ve got a decent amount of space as well as a full-size spare tire.
Engine
This 1965 Sunbeam Tiger comes with a 260ci Ford V8 that’s been enhanced via an aftermarket chrome air intake system, headers and a custom exhaust system. The car has got a crisp T-10 4-speed manual transmission and is, of course, rear-wheel drive. We’re also informed that the suspension system is aftermarket.

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.
The 1985 Toyota Celica Supra P-Type represents the golden era of Japanese grand touring, blending sharp styling, rear-wheel-drive performance, and impressive refinement into one highly desirable package. As the more performance-oriented variant of the second-generation Supra, the P-Type distinguished itself with aggressive factory styling and enthusiast-focused equipment that helped establish the Supra’s legendary reputation long before it became a turbocharged icon. Showing 127,627 miles, this Black example remains a compelling classic that’s equally suited for weekend cruising, collector events, or anyone looking to experience one of Toyota’s most influential sports coupes.
The 1987 Buick Regal Grand National stands as one of the most legendary American performance cars of the 1980s, proving that turbocharging could outperform the era’s traditional V8-powered rivals. Widely regarded as the pinnacle of Buick’s turbocharged G-body lineup, the final-year Grand National became an instant icon thanks to its sinister all-black appearance and formidable factory performance. Showing just 38,354 miles, this example retains the unmistakable character that made the Grand National a legend among enthusiasts. Disclaimer: Rebuilt shown on title.
The 1956 Chevrolet Sedan Delivery is one of the most distinctive utility vehicles of the Tri-Five era, combining the iconic styling of Chevrolet’s passenger cars with the practicality of a commercial delivery body. Showing 70,077 miles, this example has been transformed into a well-executed restomod that blends classic 1950s design with upgraded performance and drivability. Finished in red over a beige interior, it benefits from a 355ci V8, a TH350 automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, and a host of custom touches throughout. The result is a unique classic that retains its vintage charm while offering a more enjoyable driving experience for today’s roads.
