Introduction
Glyn Parry
A beautiful little drop head sports car - it isn't often that you'll see a Sunbeam Alpine on the roads these days.
In 1956 Ken Howes and Jeff Crompton were tasked with doing a complete redesign of the Sunbeam Alpine - of course their main focus was the US market, like many British manufacturers at the time, and what pretty car they styled that did well on both sides of the pond.
This example comes auction having undergone an extensive restoration with a bodywork strip down to bare metal, then restored with new panels and repainted by the previous owners. Historic works have also included an upgraded engine with gearbox overhaul, new brakes, clutch, suspension, new poly bushes, brake and fuel lines, new radiator, chrome fittings, rubber seals, new hood, stainless exhaust, a new wiring loom and many more new parts.
More recently, the brake servo and alternator was replaced in 2020, new tyres were updated in 2022 and a new carburettor and reconditioned cylinder head were installed in 2023, allowing it to run on unleaded petrol without the need for any additive.
This 1964 Sunbeam Alpine comes to the market after spending ~4 years with the current owner. The car was restored ~14 years ago, and is now ideal for anyone wanting to experience a truly usable and beautifully rare 60's classic.
This listing was written from information supplied by Glyn after meeting Pete the owner, and having visited and photographed the vehicle.
