It looks like a 55 T-Bird to me in all respects. Would need a
couple more pictures and views to confirm.

Subject: [Tigers] thunderbird not sunbeam?
I saw this on flickr... i'm trying to work it out.
They say : "Shelby Sunbeam Tiger".. and we all know the issues with that..
but.
Look at the firewall.. doesnt match alpine or tiger.. it looks like they
have placed a V8 in without tucking it under the scuttle, but the scuttle
also looks a little shallow.. have they cut it back to just give a straight
engine compartment? It also seems to have a ford thunderbird grille and
headlamp eyebrows and the rear wing shows ellements of 55 thunderbird panel
pressing.. and the bonet is all wrong for a sunbeam too.
have they taged this wrong and its actually a thunderbird hotrod? im leaning
towards thinking this is a modified T-bird and not a sunbeam at all.
