These photos were sent in from Greece from an enthusiast who has just acquired this car. It is believed to be British from the Jaeger gauges in the dash. Most of the mechanical bits are British, too. Mind you I don't recognize the motor. The new owner would like to restore the car but knowing what it is would definitely help! There were I.D. tags at the front of the engine compartment but they have been removed. Looks a lot like a Series V Sunbeam Alpine except for the headlights (and lack of a vent window in the door) so my guess at this point is a modified Alpine. If you know for sure please drop me a line and I'll pass the info on to the owner. I'll also post any answers here for anyone else interested. - Allan, webmaster@britishcarlinks.com.



UPDATE - Thanks to all that have responded! The consensus is that it is actually a Series II Alpine which has had some heavy modifications. The motor is actually from a 1966 Singer Gazelle. The guys at the Sunbeam Alpine Owners Club of America and the Sunbeam Alpine Owners Club played a big role in helping to identify the car.



UPDATE II - Thanks to Jan Eyerman, Gazelle Registrar, North American Singer Owners Club, for sending in the following - "The engine looks like a Series IIIA-IIIC Hillman Minx.... the Zenith 30VN carburetor and the intake manifold with three threaded holes to the rear of the carb (one is blocked from view). These three holes were for mounting a throttle solenoid on Easidrive equipped cars. Soooo the engine (or at least the intake manifold!) came from a Series IIIA-IIIC Hillman. Since Singer Gazelles had chrome valve covers and this one has a painted valve cover, it points more to a Hillman Minx origin for the engine."

What would really do it for me is a picture of a hot, half-naked chick operating a crane to install a large satellite antenna dish. If a Mac computer were involved also.... ooooohhh, baby.... :o

since you are breaking rule #1, does that make you stupid or a rebel?


We're looking at 885 pages of crap. We are all stupid.

Ahh Kemah - one of my favorite places (I lived off NASA Rd 1 a LONG time ago) used to have drinks with the girls at the The Turtle Club and Toolies - both of which are probably long gone.
