Very nice 1965 Sunbeam restoration for sale. I purchased the car a couple of years ago from a gentleman in NC. The car had already been restored. The car was completely rebuilt with new paint, carpet, top, seats, new wood dash panel, etc. There is no rust in this car! The engine and drive train are original to the car. The 260 V8 has been freshened, but not bored. The original carburetor and manifold have been updated to Edelbrock. The original air cleaner was replaced was replaced with an aftermarket type. The original tach has been replaced with an Auto Meter type. The bumpers and guards were re-chromed during the restoration. The body badges and side chrome are new. The Sunbeam trunk letters are original. It has an updated Griffin aluminum radiator, with cooling fan installed. The doors fit nicely and the engine runs strong and sounds great with Flow Master exhausts. All the instruments work, as do all the lights, horn and turn signals. The original steering wheel has been upgraded to the Lecarra wooden type. When restored, a large exhaust was installed, and through the frame holes were bypassed. The frame has been reinforced with all new suspension. The restorer detailed the trunk and built a battery box and moved the battery behind the passenger seat. Everything was done professionally. It has been converted to an alternator and did not have a brake booster on it when we purchased it. It stops just fine as is. It has a few chips and flaws in the paint, but shows very well. The previous owner put new brakes, master cylinder and new tires with LAT wheels. We installed a new battery, starter and solenoid recently as well. This Sunbeam is a fun car to drive around town with the top down or on a cold night with the black top up. One picture shows the under dash plug hole that only real Tigers have. I have had several Sunbeam enthusiasts look over the vehicle, but no one has official authenticated it as a Tiger or Alpine. This is not a kit car. I have the clear certificate of title ready to change to a new car enthusiast. Please make arrangements to check it out for yourself prior to finalizing the sale. This Sunbeam will not disappoint as it has great eye appeal and the power to back it up.
