Description:
Thanks for stopping by to take a look at our very cool 1967 Sunbeam Alpine Series V Convertible. The Alpine became famous in many films of the 60’s and was driven by legendary performers like Cary Grant, Elizabeth Taylor, Michael Caine and Tuesday Weld. From James Bond films to the Get Smart Television series, the Sunbeam Alpine played a long running series of co-starring roles.
This Alpine spent it’s life in warm, dry Tucson Arizona where it was used sparingly by a snowbird from Washington State. It was kept up to date and maintained regularly. It is an excellent driver but not a concours car. Paint is shiny but aging a bit.
As can be seen in the video, driving this Alpine is an absolute hoot. It's tight in the corners and lively of the line. Alpines are often preferred by racers for these qualities and many have extensive racing histories. Upgrading this Alpine to the 15 inch Genuine Minilites and new Cooper CS# tyres really improves the ride and drive over the standard 13 inch configuration. Within minutes behind the wheel, you'll summon your inner 007 (or 86) and be off on an adventure every time you venture out for a coffee or a weekend jaunt.
