I am a retired music professor from Mitchell, SD. I have owned Sunbeam Alpines/Tigers since 1966. I presently have a 1967 Series V Alpine with a 5 speed tranny, a 1964 V8 Alpine (Tiger clone)with a mild 302 & C4, and a newly restored 1966 Tiger MK1A that is back on the road after more than 25 years in storage. I belong to the Sunbeam Alpine Owners Club of America - SAOCA - and Tigers East/Alpines East - TEAE. My dad and I built my first car when I was 12 years old. I have been "Car Crazy" ever since. Current projects include modifying the V8 Alpine to use throttle body fuel injection. I am also redoing the interior and wiring on the '67 Alpine. Later this spring I will be restoring a 60's something Triumph Spitfire.
It's a good thing I am retired!
 
Welcome to ya! We need some more traffic on the Sunbeam side, and it sounds like you're going to add to the party.

Welcme to the Forum!! :yesnod:
 
Welcome, now I've always wanted to ask this. Do avid Sunbeam owners have a poster of Maxwell Smart on their walls. lol
 
Hey Mychael,

Thats a great question! Well Autosunbeam; Do you? I think that would be pretty cool.

"Welcome" and show us all some pics of your Collection.

Have a "FUN" Happy New Year here,

Regards,

Russ
 
Hi all - thanks for all the welcoming comments. I do not have a Maxwell Smart poster on my wall. I do, however, have several James Bond model cars as seen in Dr. No.

Come and join us in Winona, MN over Labor Day weekend, 2011. All Brit cars welcome for a car show, poker run, tech sessions, etc.
