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.
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.
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.
