The last song: 1965 Sunbeam Venezia by Touring

This car was the swan song of Carrozzeria Touring, indeed, perhaps it was the cause of its financial meltdown. Let’s start from the beginning: The car was the result of the collaboration between the Rootes group and the Touring body shop, which already assembled the Sunbeam Alpine and the Hillman Super Minx in its Milan… Read More The last song: 1965 Sunbeam Venezia by Touring

Roootes: 1966 Sunbeam Tiger MK1A

The seller hasn’t written much about this Tiger, but what he has written is actually what really matters. Indeed the car is said to still have its original 260 V8 engine and 4 speed gearbox and that it has 67K documented miles: it is extremely rare for a car over 50 to have such a… Read More Roootes: 1966 Sunbeam Tiger MK1A

Green feline: 1965 Subeam Tiger

In spite of the image it has, this can be considered to all intents and purposes a muscle car. Indeed, if a Ford Mustang of the same period is considered a muscle car icon, let alone how the Tiger can be considered, it has the same eight-cylinder engine (but in this case 260 cubic inches),… Read More Green feline: 1965 Subeam Tiger

Mini Barracuda: 1969 Sunbeam Alpine Fastback

It is the first time ever that we see this car, probably for two reasons: it is rare and, perhaps, it is not among the most beautiful cars in the history of motoring. There are so few around if you are looking for this model, many of the photos that appear are the same as… Read More Mini Barracuda: 1969 Sunbeam Alpine Fastback

Two for one: 1967 Sunbeam Tiger

There are basically three ways to approach a classic car: buy one in perfect condition, buy a driver to whom you will plan all the necessary chores, or buy a wreck and arrange it according to your wishes. Certainly the last option often proves to be the most expensive even if, initially, it can give… Read More Two for one: 1967 Sunbeam Tiger

Welcome, Quinn: 1953 Sunbeam Alpine MKI

This post, as well as all the others to follow, are dedicated to my nephew Quinn, born yesterday. And, to celebrate the event, today there will be three posts instead of one. “Live long and prosper”, as Leonard Nimoy used to say. “To Catch a Thief” is the title of the film in which Cary… Read More Welcome, Quinn: 1953 Sunbeam Alpine MKI

The Italian Job/3: 1964 Sunbeam Venezia by Touring

Apparently only 145 of them were made, Touring of Milano took care of their build and, consequently, they all had aluminum bodywork. The goal of Sunbeam was to rely on one of the most famous Italian ateliers to build an elegant coupé that could compete, for example, with the Lancia Flaminia built from the same… Read More The Italian Job/3: 1964 Sunbeam Venezia by Touring

Going to carnival: 1965 Sunbeam Tiger MK1

Obviously this is not the first Sunbeam Tiger that we see for sale, but of all those views is definitely the one we like best. The reasons are various: the Carnival Red paint is very beautiful and fits perfectly with the original hardtop covered with black vinyl and we like very much the tires with… Read More Going to carnival: 1965 Sunbeam Tiger MK1
