With the talk about Tigers and Ports of Entry, I was wondering if anyone ha=
s ever put together a list of the Sunbeam car dealer network?
I know that some cars I've owned you could trace which dealer originally so=
ld the car through the original paperwork. Without the original paperwork I=
'm not sure how you would know.
Was there ever a list of dealers?
I know in 1966-1967 my father bought a brand new Sunbeam Alpine GT. Car cam=
e with a hardtop but there was no soft top. The dealer had their own Alpine=
 they used for racing and I can remember trying to talk my dad into buying =
a Sunbeam Tiger which the dealer had in stock.
The dealer was close to the military bases which was probably where most of=
 their buyers were from.
I don't recall the name of the dealership, but I remember they were on Dyer=
 Street in El Paso, Texas.=C2=A0

s Information  All,I was reviewing a well researched 1995 article What is a=
 Sunbeam Tiger? listed on the STOA website by Von Levandowski from Cobra Ma=
gazine.In it, he states "While about 80% of the original Tiger sales were l=
ocated on the west coast, ownership opportunities now exist nationwide."Whi=
le I knew the majority of Tigers were delivered to California, I had never =
heard it quantified.Our Tiger research has always lacked data on delivery p=
orts and retail outlet distribution.
Does anyone know from where this 80% figure was obtained?Does anyone have a=
dditional or contradictory information/documentation on ports of entry and =
retail distribution?Thanks in advance.CheersB
