British Cars at Supercar Sunday

Here are some photos of British cars at Supercar Sunday, last Sunday obviously...

(Supercar Sunday is a weekly cruise-in just north of LA)

Sorry, the forum is set to allow only 11 links in a post, so here are more...

What is the first picture?

Sunbeam Alpine

they all look great!

Sigh California - December

I don't think I have ever seen an Alpine with the hood up

 

[Steve_S]

Correct, an Alpine (an early one, not the later "series" car). Unfortunately someone shoehorned a Chevy small block with auto trans in the poor thing. Another guy in the area has two of them he's restoring to original so it should all balance out. :wink:

 

[DNK]

Blasphemy!

Hi Steve,
Is that a different location from last year?

 

[Steve_S]

Yeah, the old location got shut down by a really stupid and slightly evil landlord. The new location is only about a mile and a half away. It's better in every respect - more parking, nicer location, etc.

Is this different than 'cars 'n coffee' that was at the Mazda office?

 

[GregW]

Yeah, completely separate.

 

[Steve_S]

Cars & Coffee is about 40 miles south of this event, and it's even bigger.

Thanks for the heads up Steve. I would have hated going to the old location. I found the new spot online.

What IS the green car in the photo before the two-tone Rolls?

Looks like a Triumph GT6, but I know from a previous comment that it is (apparently) not.

The snitty-picky side of me says "Surely this is a Sunbeam-Talbot Alpine?"

Kinda looks like a replica of the Le mans GT6, not sure.

The green car is the Frankentriumph, a project in progress by a friend of mine. It's a Spitfire chassis, GT6 roof and the rest is custom. Sort of a LeMans Spitfire Coupe thing.

I like it.
