Hello Everyone: A friend of mine (a very knowledgable Sunbeam mechanic and Tiger race driver) informed me today that his 1967 Alpine Series V (left hand drive, 1725 engine, Overdrive Transmission) has a very unusual VIN plate. Below the ID number are the words: "Singer Motorcar Company". This is punched in from underneath the vin plate, exactly as is normal on the ID numbers! The rivits, etc, all look original and like they've never been removed. Has anyone heard of this before, and if so, what the heck is the story? I didn't get the ID # but can do so if this could help solve the mystery.
