From the Seattle Times...I know nothing of these cars other than the ad itself, except for the last one which I went and looked at.

'64 Sunbeam Alpine - V6, 190hp, 5sp, $9000/obo. (253) 529-2163

'66 Sunbeam Tiger 260, V8$13,995... at Drager's Classics 206-545-4400

'65 Sunbeam Alpine, Hrdtp, not running, $1,000. (206) 284-3779 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I looked at this car, it's Powder blue, and in pretty sad shape. Trunk lid rusted through from the inside near handle. Hardtop require complete restoration, two cylender heads in trunk, one Alpine Aluminum, and the other was iron. Could not open the hood, so no idea what's there. 300+pound of pull on handle would not fully release the hood! Paint was in sad shape. Owner said he had two sets of seats, but none seen, dash replaced by home built dash. Owner said he has a new soft top from years ago but was never installed...also not seen. No front bumper seen, nose apparent had been hit at both headlights at some point. No paint on outer corners. No visible rust on sills, but could hear rust raining down inside of sills when kicked. Some rust behind sills at front of rear fender....etc, etc... my opinion, best used as a parts car. According to owner, car has been sitting since 1978. It's in a garage, but garage is open to the weather.....8-(
