Ever notice the similarity between the original Ford Thunderbird and Alpines? Same peaked fender line, hooded headlights, tail fins, & grill opening. Before joining Rootes in 1956 as chief designer o

50's TBird-->Alpine YES!!!, I always thought from the front they looked suprisingly similar! The proportions of the Alpine/Tiger is better IMO. Sandy Ever notice the similarity between the original F

Yes, it definitely looks like the first T-Bird. I always wondered who designed the back of the Tiger, - Raymond Loewy? The latter versions of the Tiger's back side bear a striking resemblance to a l

The Series IV Alpine rear fenders were styled by Ital design, wasn't it? Something where they owed Rootes a favor and this is how it got paid off. I think the proportions of the later rear end are pr

I believe it was Road & Track magazine that did an article comparing the Series II Alpine to a '57 T-Bird, pointing out the obvious styling similarities. I can't remember which issue it was but I hav
